Hello, brand new to this forum! Seems very informative and helpful. I have a fairly good background in wiring DC electronics especially marine applications but I am having a real hard time attempting to wire a project on my boat. Here's what i am trying to do:
I have a custom switch panel with 4 single pole single throw switches. They will control electric trim tabs that stabilize the boat. The actuators have two wires on them (reverse polarity). I am trying to wire them so one switch deploys them and the other switch retracts them. 2 switches for each side of boat. The switches are only 3A , the actuators are rated 20A so plan on wiring them to a set of relays i have. I can always buy the factory switch which is two DPDT switches but they are so basic looking and this is a higher end project. I will attach pictures to help show what I have involved. Thank you!
