Power supply connections

SeaTalk systems

CAUTION:
When instruments are connected to SeaTalk, ensure that the
power supply for the SeaTalk 12 V line is protected by a 5 A fuse.

Systems with a large number of instruments on the SeaTalk bus may require
connections to the power supply from each end of the system (‘ring-main’ style),
to maintain sufficient voltage throughout the system.

This requirement depends on the total length of the cable run and the total
number of instruments in the system, as follows:

Cable run
