I don't have specific instructions for the power wire but when routing a power wire for a powered converter like the part # C56310 the key is to route the wire away from any moving parts or exhaust that would get too hot and melt the wiring.
If you can run the wire down a frame rail that would be ideal since that would protect the wiring somewhat.
I attached a help article that covers how to route the power wire for a converter.
