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

- 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.
