Can Redarc Smart Start Battery Isolator Connections be Removed and Rotated

Published 03/17/2023

Question:

For the REDARC SBI212D can I remove all the wiring and connections on them and rotate them 180 and retain the normal function? I am mounting in a tight space and would prefer the terminal to the start battery to be on the left hand side and the aux on the right. As a solenoid I assume as long as I just flip the blue brown black wires and the red LED box 180 degrees it should function normally? Thanks.

I reached out to Redarc, who said the wiring and connections of the Redarc Smart Start Battery Isolator # 331-SBI212D can indeed be switched. They said "looking at a wiring diagram for the solenoids that we use, I can confirm that switch around the connections to suit a 180 deg rotation would be perfectly fine!"
