•
Wherever possible lay cables inside the vehicle, as they are better protected
inside than outside the vehicle.
If you do need to lay a cable outside the vehicle, ensure that it is well secured
(use additional cable ties, insulating tape, etc.).
•
To prevent damage to the cables, when laying them ensure that there is sufficient
distance to hot or moving vehicle components (exhaust pipes, drive shafts, light
systems, fans, heater etc.). Use corrugated piping or other protective materials to
protect against mechanical wear.
•
Screw on the plug connections of the connecting cables to protect against water
penetration (fig.
g
, page 6).
•
When laying electric connections, ensure that
–
They are not kinked or twisted
– They do not rub on edges
– They are not laid in sharp edged ducts without protection (fig.

, page 3)
•
Attach the cables securely in the vehicles to prevent tripping hazards. Use cable
binders, insulating tape or glue the cables in place.
•
Protect every through-hole made in the bodywork against water penetration,
e.g. by using a cable with a sealant and by spraying the cable and the cable
sleeve with sealant.

NOTE
Do not start sealing the through-holes until all installation work has been
finished for the camera, and the required cable lengths have been
established.
