Installation Instructions: IMPORTANT! Read before installing 

•  It is recommended that electrical terminations and connections are carried out by a marine electrical technician.
•  These battery switches are for isolation purposes and are not designed for switching under load.  

Ensure there are no circuits with high inductive loads directly connected to the 
switch in order to prevent any sudden in-rush of current which may cause damage 
to the switch. 

•  Although specially selected chemical resistant materials have been used, 

we recommend that for maximum product life only plastic safe corrosion inhibiting 
sprays are used. 

•  Ensure all cables are sized correctly for the loads they carry. 

Please refer to www.bepmarine.com to calculate correct cable sizes. 

•  Ensure all electrical connections are correctly tightened to prevent any damage to the 

battery switch.

•  WARNING: Ensure fi eld disconnect contacts are wired to interrupt alternator fi eld current.
