The table below should be used to select the required cable conductor size per
junction box. If in doubt always select the next larger conductor size up (i.e. the
next lower AWG number).
For long runs using the thicker gauges it may be necessary to drop down to
a slightly smaller gauge cable near to the OceanDMX junction box to allow
connection into the unit (keeping the long run in the thicker gauge cable to
avoid voltage drops). Ensure all connections / joints are watertight, and
suitable for the current load.
The supply cable must be protected by a suitable fuse or breaker
