Before choosing a circuit for your lighting setup, verify the amperage rating required by your device. Each circuit has a maximum load rating and your device should not surpass this limit.
Refer to the following table for circuit configuration:

CAUTIONS:

• The maximum capacity of the power hub is 60A. If you connect multiple lights or electrical devices that exceed this limit, they must not be turned on at the same time. Doing so may damage the power hub.
• Do not mix fuses with different amperage ratings in the fuse block. Each fuse is specifically designed to protect its corresponding circuit. Always ensure that the fuse rating matches the specifications of the circuit being protected.
• Once the installation is complete, test the power hub to ensure that it is working correctly and safely. Turn on each light or device one at a time to ensure that they are all working correctly and that the power hub is not overloaded.
