NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL
2. Wiring protection
Use a category 3 resin, lightweight felt or tape-type protection in the engine compartment and in the
under-body and category 1 to 3 for the other sections not subjected to high temperatures (see electrical
chapter of the General Conversion Guide).
Since the annular sheathing type protection (Split Annular Sheath) is abrasive and may cause corrosion
(paint wear) and noise (in hollow bodies), it must be immobilised.
There must be no contact between the wiring and the brake or fuel pipes.
If the original wiring is near to an annular sheath, a spacer (double finger clip grip) must be added in
order to avoid any contact (risk of wear and short circuit).
