Need some advice, so I come to the source
I am wiring up my Master Switch and after connecting the wires and hooking up a 12 volt power supply to the Master Contactor, I am not getting power where I think I should. My architecture is straight from Bob Nuckolls and my schematic can be seen here: http://www.donsbushcaddy.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/n2celectricalschematic.jpg
I got my switch from Stein and it is one of those very nice Honeywell 8504 K65 locking toggle switches: http://www.steinair.com/images/store/switch6.jpg
When installed the switch should be off in the lower position, middle position is Batt and top position is Batt/Alt. I understand that the numbering on this switch may be different form Bob's Z drawings but I've tried it in many configurations and it seems wrong. With my architecture can anyone tell me which wire I should be connecting to which terminal on this switch? With the keyway up and looking at the screw terminals the numbering of the terminals is as follows: Left side bottom to top - 4,5,6. Right side bottom to top - 1,2,3. Thank you!
