B.6.1
To construct a ground cable
When dealing with electrical installations in a marine environment, all wiring must be done
with double insulated, tinned strands, high quality and if exposed also UV resistant cables.
This shall also apply to the separate ground cable mentioned in the previous paragraphs.
The ground cable is constructed using an appropriate cable with a cross section area of at
least 6 mm
2
(AWG10) and terminated with insulated ring crimp terminals, see the
illustration below. The crimp terminals must be a marine approved type e.g. the DuraSeal
series from Raychem.
