Battery cut off switch
I just bought one like the one in the picture below. Should I install it on the positive terminal or the negative and why? I run two 12V group 27s in parallel.

Would like some facts to why it "MUST" be on the positive side.
Like others said either side...but...
With this type of device the Neg. would be better. If you have the battery disconnected and then plug in the trailer the disconnected end will be powered by the converter. If that loose end contacts the frame you can create a short.
The break-a-way switch is only a problem if you don't connect the battery before moving the trailer.
