I can give you a general quideline how my Hobbs switch is running my BAP.
Obviously, run a dedicated + - lines from the second pump out of the tank. Take the negative and ground it at the tank. Take the positive and run it along the frame to the engine. Take a 5psi Hobbs switch and tap it into the manifold at the power brake hose with a tee. Run the positive from the pump to one leg of the Hobbs switch. Run the other leg of the Hobbs switch to an inline 20amp fuse and then to a + hot connection of your choice. You're finished. Now if it were mine I would run a lighted on off switch between the fuse and the + connection so I could manually turn it off plus when the 5psi boost hits you can see the light turn on verifying the circuit is complete.
