3 Circuit breaker
4 Fuse
Where possible, connect individual items of
equipment to individual circuit breakers. Where this
is not possible, use individual in-line fuses to provide
the necessary protection.
Power and drive cables
Important electrical considerations when planning
cable runs and equipment location.
The amount of electrical current available to the
autopilot system components will be impacted by
the length and gauge of the cables used to connect
all the components. When determining the cable
required for the power and drive connections it is
necessary to consider the
combined cable length
of both connections.

Important:
Use of an incorrect power cable size will reduce
the power supplied to the drive unit and could
cause your autopilot to malfunction. If in doubt,
use a heavier gauge cable. Keep cable runs to a
minimum where possible, and also observe the
guidance provided in the location requirements
section of this document.
