-ing points into consideration.
 All cables need to be well clamped and protected from physical
damage and exposure to heat and humility.
 Cable with an acute bend is not allowed.
 Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deckhead,
a watertight gland or swan neck tube should be used.

you will need to install a suitable DC to AC converter to operate the unit(s)
from your boat's DC power supply.

adequate length to complete the installation on most boats.
