it's rated for 70 amps continuous and 85 amps intermittent 12V, so 50 amp fuse on the 24V should be more than enough. As for wiring, it's always better to go oversized than undersized, but the charts I'm seeing are saying 10 gauge should be good with a 50 or 60 amp fuse if you're only running a...

Should be easy enough to verify. When hooked up to power on the main lugs, one terminal will be hot, the other not. The not hot one should be the one that gets hooked to a switched power source in the truck.

Yes, there is a built in relay From the instruction manual (actually, this is the entire instruction manual) Number 4 on the list below

The battery is there to act as a buffer/power reservoir, so having 50+ amps of load for short periods of time shouldn't be an issue as long as everything is functioning normally.

As i mentioned before, if you're going for more than about 30 amps fused (so less than that actual draw) I would say install the Orion 70 amp converter and follow the instructions for wiring it, as it has the built in relay that you can power off of any 24V circuit that's hot with the ignition...

50 amps max. The TCM is going to use some of that 12V feed. The reason I say 30 max is because you really don't want to max out the amount of power draw on the circuit if you can avoid it, so 30 amps plus whatever the TCM is drawing keeps you below 40 amps.

You would need to run it through a constant duty solenoid/relay rated for the load, that is connected to a switched power source. The Orion 70 amp 24-12 converter has a built in relay to do exactly this (and if you're pulling more than about 30 amps of 12V you should really use a converter anyway)

12V uses the same ground as the 24V does
