Bob:



The wiring diagram that came with the B&C overvoltage module included the following note:

"IMPORTANT -- BATTERY CONTACTOR AND ALTERNATOR SHOULD COME ON AND OFF TOGETHER."



This seems to suggest a 2-3 style switch rather than the 2-10 style that I've installed.



Is this 'important' note the latest 'best practice' (newer than Z11), or can I be confident with the 2-10 style (where the first position activates the battery contactor and the next position the alternator).



Thanks.

   That's an artifact from a very old set of instructions

   before 2-10 switches were offered from my website and

   ultimately B&C's website. The Z-figures with 2-10

   switches are correct as shown.
