Plan the installaon to suit the controls and give the operator a full view of the windlass. The
wiring system should be of the fully insulated type, which avoids possible electrolyc corrosion
problems.
We recommend the use of type III stranded, nned copper wire with copper crimp
terminals (NOTE: we recommend that the cable are shorter if possible.). Most modern installa-
ons are negave return (negave ground) but polarity should be checked. Overload protec-
on, in the form of the circuit breaker provided must be built into the windlass wiring circuit.
• Circuit breaker supplied:
Atlanc 600 Series (Circuit Breaker: 60 Amps - 80 Amps)
Atlanc 900 Series (Circuit Breaker: 80 Amps)
• The circuit breaker should be posioned close to the baery in a dry, readily accessible place.
• The breaker must be manually reset should an overload occur that causes it to trip to the o
posion.
Warning
If you are not sure you understand these guidelines, seek professional help. Ensure that the
installaon complies with USCG, ABYC, NMMA or other local regulaons.
