Power ACC Relay

Where does the power acc relay get its power from? I know it comes from the fuse block but what main wire powers the fuse block. Cause shouldnt the voltage to the power acc 30 amp relay be off whent he key is in the off position and in my hand. For some reason I have power to the Power ACC relay with the key in the off position is this normal or am I just having a Brain Fart. HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Most of thhe relays I'm familiar with have power to them all the time. Turning the key on closes the contacts in the relay and lets power through to the power accessories.
