Bill - would you please look at the pictures again. Why do I have 2 wires attached to the positive post? In my image (attached) I labeled them 1a and 2a. What would the second one be for?

I am trying to compare mine to yours and label as clearly as I can. What confuses me is that I have the same number of wires attached to the negative post as you show in your diagram, one is the ground and the other negative.

So why do I have the same number of wires attached to the negative post, but an extra wire attached to the positive post?

The 2 positive wires connect to the 30 amp circuit breaker and come out the other side. I don't know where they go to.

Thanks in advance. Once I get this all straight in my head, I will write up the connecting batteries for dummies version.
