EMC Compliance

B&G equipment is designed to be operated in leisure craft. Every
care has been taken in the design and testing to ensure
compliance with the European EMC Directive. Provided the
equipment is installed and operated in accordance with the
instructions supplied and the units and cables are used unmodified
no problems should be encountered. Specific attention is drawn to
the requirements to maintain cable separation, where stated. To
comply with these regulations:
(a) A supply line filter is required. This may be obtained
from your installer quoting B&G part number: 990-00-001.
(b) Ensure proper connection of cable screens.
Transmissions from poorly installed or maintained Single Sideband
equipment may adversely affect the functioning of this equipment.
On vessels fitted with an SSB, it is essential that such equipment
be installed following
recommended by the manufacturer.

General Wiring Notes

CAUTION Do not apply power to the autopilot system until all
units are connected and the wiring has been checked.
Where spade connectors are supplied always use the correct
crimping tool to attach them to the cable. This is extremely
important where cables carry high currents, i.e. rudder drive unit
supply cables (ACP 1 - 25 Amps or ACP 2 - 40 Amps).
Keep supply cables as short as possible to reduce voltage drop in
the cables.
Always fit a suitable fuse or circuit breaker in supply cables. A 25
Amp (ACP 1) or 40 Amp (ACP 2) MCB is essential for the heavy-
duty power cables.
Clearly identify each cable to prevent incorrect connection.
