Bob and list,
In a reply a few days ago, it was suggested that a voltmeter on the endurance bus would be a good idea to monitor the health of the battery and the SD8 during alternator out operation. Rather than installing a second voltmeter, I am considering using a 2-3 switch for the e-bus alternate feed and wiring it as shown on the attached diagram. The voltmeter is a UMA "steam gauge". The voltmeter would read the voltage on the appropriate bus, according to the position of the switch.

Feedback welcome.

Regards,

That's how I would do it.
