Note:
Connection via a switch panel and main isolator switch is assumed. Wiring directly to a
vessels battery bank is not recommended.
The shield (bare wire) can be insulated from all other wires.
If interference is encountered from other on board electronics, the screen can be connected
to a vessel hull ground to help reduce any interference, but it is not generally required.
