Special Requirements For
Marine Installations:
The DE-541 is internally wired so that the AC and
DC circuits are isolated from each other. If the
positive (+12 volts) DC input is grounded in any
way (cuts in the wire insulation, improperly insu-
lated connections, etc.), a voltage potential could
be developed throughout the boat in which corro-
sion develops on any metal parts exposed to water.
This situation may be avoided by wiring the boat
so that AC and DC grounds are common and wiring
is protected per NNMA CERTIFICATION HAND-
BOOK (1987). Inspect all wiring to insure that
insulation has not been damaged. Plastic wire
clamps are recommended.
