How is this wired? Does the input hot wire go to the tall nut on the side of the fuse block? I want to wire a 120v AC lamp cord to this.

I actually use this block in reverse as a combiner box for 24v solar panels. The six points all connect to the main nut, interrupted by a fuse for each of the six leads. However, It is not rated for AC use. It is rated for 30a at up to 32v. You can find the specs on the manufactures web site.

Hot wire goes to the tall nut. Six male spade connectors (3 on each side) for each accessory. Metal plate runs from the tall bolt/nut to make contact with each of the male spade connectors. I used it as an auxiliary fuse block for my motorcycle.

I really do not think this is the best use of the fuse box as it uses automotive type fuses that are typically rated for 12 volts and DC at that. With alternating current you have both a sine wave that switches polarity 60 times a second or 60 hertz. I do not think that would make any difference in this case but I suppose you could use that stud to hook the black wire to. You might find you are better served with individual in-line fuses rated for 120 volts. Since I have no way of cross comparison and am not electrically or electronically qualified you are on your own with this. The big problem I see with this is the bare stud that is protruding and could lead to a nasty shock or death. You are on your own here unless my statements are preempted by one far more qualified. I am using mine in a protected area in my truck cab on a 12 volt system.

I agree with other responses this fuse assembly is designed for low voltage automobile and marine circuits. I would not attempt to use it in any 120VAC application

The wire is probably OK as long as it is stranded copper like lamp cord wire as these lamps use snap connectors. Your transformer will dictate how many lights you can put on the circuit. If you have a 300 watt 12 volt transformer you could put 30 10 watt lamps on the circuit as long as your run is not too long. Bulb changes should not be required.

Probably a meter long, red/black wire, lighter than lamp cord. Should be no problem to use longer wire.

This switch needs and controls 120 VAC (only) to work. It has three wires, neutral, hot and out to switch/light. I would recommend a electrician to look at your application.

no fuses or relays, but they pull very little power...any standard auto switch can handle them. I don't recall any instructions, but the 2 wires were color coded red (+ voltage) and black (-voltage or car/truck chassis) that must be followed for most all LED lights...other than that it's as simple as any other 12 volt DC light. bright white light, been outside in all weather since I got them, still work great. Lamp is strongly built, the bracket is simple bent and plated steel, but effective.I think 90 + % of lamps of this type as well as most LEDs all come from China, but they are made well. I seem to remember they ship from China, so it's not super fast delivery...seems I remember 3 ish weeks no fuses or relays, but they pull very little power...any standard auto switch can handle them.

If you mean the part where it plugs into the wall, its small. Not grounded so the same size as a normal lamp cord would be. If you mean the end where you screw in the lightbulb, it's barely bigger than the base of the lightbulb itself is. Very small cord but works quite well.

the light needs both a neutral and a hot. In my setup I only interrupt the hot. I have the hot wired through the switch and a neutral wired on the other side for the light. If you look closely you can see small wires that lead to the light on the conductors protruding from the rear.

It comes pre-wire for a grounded household plug. I'm not sure...unfortunately, one of the 3 I ordered has recently stopped working. :( Love the lamp though.

If you have any knowledge of wiring, it want be difficult. If it is your first time, I would ask someone with more experience to give you a hand. I would also suggest putting an in-line fuse on the wire, just to be safe.

You need to buy one. I use a 10-foot length, and therefore selected a rubber jacketed 12-3 (12 AWG with 3 copper conductors). Don't use 'zip cord', it is to small in gauge.Green wire goes to ground ("ground symbol" / left)White wire goes to nuetral ("N" / center)Black wire goes to load ("L" / right)Wire the plug in the same way.

Hi Gatita, The light bar is 12vdc, it can't be wired directly into existing 120v electric lines, but we will send you a transformer along with the light bar for free, the 120vac can be switched into 12vdc by the transformer, what you need to do is plug the transformer into your existing 120vac socket, and then, connect the light bar with the transformer's DC output connector .

It is the correct unit to interrupt the power to a modem,provided the wire from the 'mole' that plugs into wall receptacle is a double flat cable and not a shielded (coaxial) cord.It's easier to Open one conductor in flat wire.Both conductors pass through switch but one side(Smoother, hot) gets cut,stripped and each side connected to screws in switch.(explained in directions that are in the bag.Unplug unit during the installation.You can, with more patience, use it on a coaxial wire.Interrupt the center wire if you want to strip a more difficult wire.I'm Ill & retired.Call on me again if you need other help.I was in Electronics/TV Repair for 52 years.

Hi Candice -- not sure I understand your question. The lamp has a standard 120V AC cord of reasonable length, and there's a three-way (low/med/high) rotary switch at the base of the shade. It's a little stiff, but works fine.

You don't ground the fuse block. Power flows through fuse block to thing being powered like lights or GPS or whatever. From there it goes to ground or via a switch to ground depending on how you wire it.

Every extension cord I've ever seen has the same lead warning (Christmas lights too). The socket and plug ends of the cord are factory sealed so I can't see the wiring material directly, I dont remember if the package specified. I was focussed on the load rating, since the maximum output mine will have to Cary is 23amps at 240volts I felt the 30 amp rating left a comfortable margin. Cable is heavy duty and performs well for my purpose (connecting generator to transfer switch).

Jeremiah this unit have wires on the back, connect this wires to +12vdc directly,fuse is internal but if you need to extend wire length make sure you use good AWG 12 wires or better!

It screws into a lamp socket. Ours is a ceiling fan with lights. The socket may be grounded for protection, but the bulb just needs standard 115/120 V 60 Hz AC.
