Hi Adam

Current wisdom seems to be that one can put up to 4 lugs on a screw, although difficult to fit.  So  options are:

- put up to 4 on each screw of the terminal strip (messy but gets you 8 connections)

- stay with a terminal strip, but use several locations on it and connect them with terminal block jumpers (see link <https://www.bluesea.com/products/9216/Terminal_Block_Jumper_for_65A_Terminal_Blocks>)

- buss bar - takes up a lot of space

Hello folks.

As one of my many winter projects I have decided to rewire the 12 volt  panel and add pigtails to make it easier to remove the panels by creating a hinged panel. I plan to run the pig tails to a terminal block.  My question is how to distribute the positive leads from  the leads to the various interior lighting wires.  I have about 4-6  different  wires from different areas of the  boat.  Would you suggest a terminal block with jumpers or a bus bar?

Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
