Relay Based Motorcycle Accessories Installition

There are numerous misconception of using Mechanical Relays on a Motorcycle to power accessories like led bar and or any mid current consuming devices. More often, they tend to use too many allowing complicated wiring and dirty look harness at the same time, But actually, the use of relay is pretty simple and straight forward.

Relay are there for ISOLATION..It is use primarily to isolate high current consuming devices not to overload the existing power line of your motorcycle. Other just tap on the original power supply line thus overloading it, heating it up then making it work hard up until copper turns black in color, thus producing too much resistance on it, and then failed to provide enough current to the original line, But how to avoid such. Mechanical Relay is your answer, But then again the question of many, is HOW? how? and how?

Ignition key switch cuts off power to the entire electrical system when it is switched off and vice versa, provide one when it is switched on, but then again, will not managed to provide to those that needs mid current devices like led bar like WALL E that consumes 1.8A approximate. To power it correctly without harming the original wiring. It needs to be isolated. Hello RELAY, now i need you.

ILLUSTRATION:

This is the Visual connection on how to make additional accessories for your motorcycle..use only one relay of high current contact capacity..that will turned OFF when ignition key is off automatically, whether the accessory switch is ON..no power will flow to your added accessory.

It was here for a reason. To help all of you on finding solutions on how to, what is the use of, and or allowing you not to go a mechanic turned electrician kind of money generating services. The idea was plain and simple but very effective. So thank you.

Good afternoon. Kung ang purpose ng Relay ay para sa ISOLATION, pwede bang hindi gumamit ng relay kung gagawa naman ako ng panibagong linya mula sa battery imbes na mag-tap or mag-jumper sa stock na linya?

Lalagayan ko pa rin syempre ng switch para hindi ma-diskarga ang battery at 5A na fuse just in case. By the way, dalawang Wall E ang balak ko ikabit.

if your switch can handle the surge current when the unit is turned on and not generating heat. Yes you may do so. Test the current first of your accessories to be installed by putting an ammeter in series with your supply. At least u will know how much current it will draw from your battery.

Mga master, ask ko lang bakit malakas kumain ng kuryente ung 2 wall-e na naka install sa mio mx ko?
