from the charger to the batteries.
Length of Wire from Charger to Batteries (in feet)

Minimum Wire Gauge AWG
#14
*Based on N.E.C. Minimum Wire Size Chart and ABYC 3% Voltage Drop Chart
ENSURE THAT LEADS ARE PROPERLY FUSED AT THE BATTERY. (REFER TO ABYC REC-
OMMENDATIONS.)
Typical d.c. wiring configurations are illustrated in FIGURES 1 and 2.
