Bluesea 5026 Question

I have seen some individuals split the main power bus on this fuse box to use one section as a trigger power section and the other section as the main power section. Wouldn't you be able to use the ground bus section as a trigger power section going to the switches that are triggering the relay? Considering you would just ground most circuits to frame members in the cabin/engine bay. I'm just hypothesizing, because I am planning on installing soon.

I don't see why not. They are isolated parts of the panel.

Sweet, thanks for the input

Only word of caution I'd give with doing that is to maybe label the cover with something like "ground circuit hot" or "ground circuit used for trigger (12v)" or what ever. This way anyone ever working on your truck (dealership, A/V installer, or the next owner, etc) will know that its a hot circuit and not just a ground and you won't have to remember to brief them before you hand over the keys...

That’s a good idea thanks! That would be pretty troublesome if they thought it was a ground
