Wiring Guidelines for Zonar Power Cables

The recommended method for power termination on the Zonar

V3R system is the use of Add-a-Circuit fuse taps. Whenever

possible, use fuse taps for power termination. If, due to the particular

make/model/year of the vehicle being installed, fuse taps cannot

be used then the poke and weave method of termination can be

utilized. All wiring terminations MUST be fused regardless of Add-

a-Circuit or poke and weave.

When installing Add-a-Circuit fuse taps, ensure that the fuse tap

seats fully in the correct location. If another fuse, a relay, or any

other object in the fuse panel prevents the fuse tap from seating

fully, relocate the fuse tap. It is not permissible for the fuse tap to

rub or make contact with other items in the fuse panel. In addition,

you must be able to re-secure the fuse panel cover or door once

the fuse tap is installed. Whenever possible, use an empty location

in the fuse panel that does not have an existing fuse. If it is not

possible to use an empty location, ensure that the existing fuse is

placed in the correct location on the fuse tap.

See Fig. 9-1

Whenever it is not possible to utilize Add-a-Circuit fuse taps then

the poke and weave method should be used.

1) First locate the proper wire where the poke and weave method

is to be installed. Strip 3/4” to 1” of insulation from the wire in

the vehicle to be installed. Spread the wire strands apart as

shown. See Fig. 9-2

2) Strip 1” to 1 1/2” of insulation from the wire in the fused link

to be installed. See Fig. 9-3

3) Insert the wire from the fused link into the spread wire in the

vehicle. Wrap around the wire several times. See Fig. 9-4

4) Cover the exposed wires with several wraps of electrical tape

or mastic. Place one wire tie over the electric tape over the

exact location where the wires are 'wrapped' together. Place

another wire tie 1” to 2” from the first wire tie, to secure the two

wires together and as stress relief. See Fig. 9-5
