Is this a trick question? I just ran one wire , hence the name, to the battery side of the solenoid. If you are asking about the amp gauge, it is a little more difficult. I am partial to voltmeters, but there is a way to connect the gauge. I would check powermaster for instructions.

Did you ever figure this out? I am getting ready to do the the conversion to the a 1 wire alt. How do you hook up a volt meter gauge?
