The Installation Diagram illustrated below represents a common installation and is
not meant to be a guide for wiring a specic vessel.
Caution: Disconnect battery connections before beginning the installation.
Reconnect after the installation is complete.
Use the wire sizing chart below to select the appropriate wire sizes. Consult an
ABYC certied electrician for proper fuse placement and sizing.
* Larger wire sizes may be required to minimize voltage drop in long wire runs.
For more information please use the Circuit Wizard at www.circuitwizard.bluesea.com.
