POWER AND GROUND
To ensure maximum output from your REFERENCE405s amplifier, use high
quality, low-loss power and ground cables. The REFERENCE405s amplifier
will accept up to 4 gauge power and ground cables. Determine from the chart

CIRCUIT BREAKERS/FUSES
EXTERNAL
Like all audio components, the REFERENCE405s amplifier must be fused
near the battery. A fuse or circuit breaker must be located within 18" of the
battery. This will prevent a fire in the event of a shorted cable. See the chart
below to determine the correct fuse value.
INTERNAL
The REFERENCE405s amplifier is fused with automotive-type fuses. In the
event of blown power supply fuses, the "Fault" indicator on the top panel will
light. The fuses are accessible via a plastic plug on the bottom of the
amplifier. See the chart below to determine the fuse value. Never replace
the fuses with a higher value than what is supplied. This may result in
amplifier damage and will void the warranty!
