Breakers, fuses and circuit protection
The information below is provided as guidance to help protect
your product. The example illustrations provided are for common
vessel power arrangements, if you are unsure how to provide
the correct level of protection then please consult a Raymarine
authorized dealer for support.
Fuse and breaker rating
Fuse rating
7 A in-line fuse fitted within power
cable.
The suitable fuse rating for the thermal breaker is dependent on
the number of devices you are connecting. If in doubt consult an
authorized Raymarine dealer.
Note: Your product's power cable may have an in-line fuse
already fitted, if not then you will need to add an in-line fuse to
the positive wire of your products power connection.
Distribution panel connection
It is recommended that your product is wired through your
vessel's distribution panel via a thermal breaker or fuse.
