3.11 Circuit breaker and fuse ratings
Battery isolator switch, thermal breaker, and fuse ratings.
All power connections between the VCM100 and its power source
must be protected by a thermal circuit breaker or fuse, fitted close
to the power connection. The connection from the output of the
VCM100 to the digital radar does not require a fuse or circuit breaker.
If you do not have a thermal circuit breaker or fuse in your power
circuit (fitted to the DC distribution panel, for example), you MUST fit
an in-line breaker or fuse to the positive wire of the power cable.
The following table provides suitable ratings for battery isolator
switches, circuit breakers, and fuses.

3.12 Sharing a breaker
Where more than 1 piece of equipment shares a breaker you must
provide protection for the individual circuits. E.g. by connecting an
in-line fuse for each power circuit.

Where possible, connect individual items of
equipment to individual circuit breakers.
Where this not possible, use individual in-line
fuses to provide the necessary protection.
