Connecting CTEK power cable to Fiat Ducato (2018) starter battery??

[KarlosM2C]

Hi all,

Myself and my fiancé are converting our Ducato and I have fed the power cable from the rear of the van in to the battery compartment under the passenger footwell. I am not ready to actually connect the lead to the battery yet, but I would like to ask where exactly on the positive terminal I should connect to. Below is a picture I pulled from the internet (it's the same as ours). Where on the fuse plate would I attach the CTEK lead?

Thanks in advance.

Karl

doesnt realy matter where theres a spare fuse position next to the red fuse or theres a bare stud just above that

As mitzimad says, there's a gap for fitting another Midi fuse, next to the two Midi fuses (the red and brown ones). You'd just need a couple of small nuts and bolts of the correct size.

Midi Link Fuses

Midi link fuses used for protecting larger current circuits in automotive, marine and leisure applications. Available in current ratings from 30A to 150A.

If you don't use that option, if you connect onto a stud you would need a fuse quite close to the battery, either the in-line type or a fuseholder like this

Midi/Strip Link Fuse Holder

Single midi/strip link fuse holder with protective cover. Fuse & cable are secured via 2 x M5 studs. Cable size for this holder is 16mm² max.
