Might be an odd question. But does anyone have any idea how much current draw and load on the system of ours is? Is there a calculation that can be done as to what is taken at 100% and what isn't. I'm an electrician and I work with residential so load calculations are always on my mind.

I'm only asking this because if I add stuff to my truck how I go abouts calculating how much load is on the system. My 2019 Ecoboost has a hefty alternator so I just want to play it safe. I guess I could just test for current at the alternator but it would be nice to know from know if there's a way to calculate.

Thanks in advance!

 

Use a DC rated clamp on amp meter that has a hold feature.
Many different MFG make a DC clamp on amp meter.
This way you have a reading that is for you truck.

Yes I've got a clamp on, I'll just crank everything and see how much the system draws
