System Cables
Before installing the system cables, you need to take the following points into consideration.
1. All cables need to be well secured and protected from physical damage and exposure to heat and humidity.
2. Cable with an acute bend is not allowed.
3. Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deck head, a watertight gland or swan neck tube
should be used.
