i have a 4 guage  wire running from my  aux over to the prime batter
with one of those battery switches in the line.    in the off position
my isolation relay is in the circuit and operates normally. with the
switch on  it connects the two batteries together  directly  bypassing
the isolation relay.  4  guage is actually larger  than most jumper
cables.
