Installation And Start-Up
NOTE
All wiring is best kept as short as possible. If the power leads must be
extended, use a high-quality, marine-grade cable sized for up to 10 amps
of current. To minimize voltage drop, choose a wire gauge as follows:
Length Wire Gauge
Up to 1.5m(4.9ft) 1.6 mils(#14)
Up to 3.0m(9.8 ft) 2.0 mils(#12)
Up to 5.0m(16.4 ft) 2.6 mils(#10)
Up to 6.0m(19.7 ft) 3.3 mils(#8)
