Master cutoff switch
I’m looking to install a 4 pole master shutoff switch, who makes a good one from both a quality and price point?
I am running a power master 30/50 amp alternator, and two 525 amp batteries, what do I need for a continuous rating? Thanks for looking.

Re: Master cutoff switch
Taylor 1033 would be one to look at, 4 terminal, high amperage.

Re: Master cutoff switch
Thanks guys,
I used a Joe’s 4 pole 250 amp from summit. I ran the batteries through one side and I put a painless cv solenoid in the alt-batt. Line and ran the activation power wire through the other poles. It works perfect, shuts the car down and kills all the live power in the car. I tried running the alt-batt wire through the switch but I was getting a big voltage drop at the batteries. Just to much wire length, the solenoid solved that problem.
