Kingsley,

Here is a photo of my set up.  I used screw terminals that attached to the
fuse holders.  I seem to recall that I put the screws in with locktite
because they are critical to the system. I think that I used 25 or 30 amp
cartridge fuses.

The OVP I used is the one as described by the Europa club, but don't use the
circuit on there CD, its wrong.  Write to Rowland to get directions to where
to get a hold of the right one.

As far as wiring I followed Bob Nuckolls idea out of his book.  I ended up
with a fuse block and a small circuit breaker panel with essential devices
on pull able circuit breakers.  The eBus can be feed from either the battery
of a second small battery.  I wanted lots of redundancy because the 914 has
electric fuel pumps.

Paul
