All cables should be routed at least 1m / 3ft from cables or

components that carry or generate high currents, e.g. alternators,
starter motors and cabling, trim-tab cables, etc.

•

To minimise interference avoid routing Network cables alongside

high power radio or Radar cables, allow 3m/10ft spacing, or within
1m/3ft of engine starter motors and cables and other cables carrying
heavy current.

•

To prevent damage to cabling always secure in position using cable

clips or tie-wraps. Where cables pass through bulkheads always
protect the cable from chafing by fitting grommets.

•

Do not allow cables to rest in bilges where prolonged immersion in

water, fuel, etc. could occur.

•

Always fit splash covers and lids on processors, computer units and

junctions boxes, where supplied.
