Hello, I have several questions involving battery connection points and functions. I have searched repeatedly, both here and the internet to no avail. Sorry if this has been covered and direction to a specific thread would be greatly appreciated if it has. Everything I've located has been for prior generations of trucks.
With that said, I am attempting to hook an accessory circuit (without using the in cab switches) direct to the battery. I would also like to add a winch at some point down the line so I'd like to future proof that connection. On that note I haven't found a good location for the winch cabling on these newer trucks.
In looking at the driver's side battery and fuse box there are several connections that I'm unable to find their function, or see if they are safe to use. Specifically, on the battery I see multiple positive leads connected to the box on top. Pic added for reference

Another option is the positive lead entering the fuse block which is just South of the picture I sent.
Thank you in advance ,
Jason
