the float switch is just like a light switch....power comes into the float...float lifts up and closes connection and sends power to the APO....

so...power to the float.......and then...out from the float to The APO...you should put a fuse in between source and the power going into the float...

run a ground from the APO to what ever ground you may have....

Or...

run the power straight to the APO..then run a ground to the float..and then from the float to the APO......

either way...make sure you have a good ground.....

you may wanna use shrink wrap rubber thingy if connecting wires for under water .. forgot what you call it but you use a flame to shrink the rubber tube over connected wires
