Cable to the echo sounder (or a junction box)
The cable gland kit includes all of the necessary parts needed to
install the unit except screws.
Simrad recommends that a one inch steel conduit (that the
transducer cable will be run through) with an inside threaded
diameter of three-quarter inches is welded to the gland’s stuffing
tube. The conduit must extend to above the vessel’s water line.
