SYSTEM PLANNING
CAUTION:
Cable sizes are specied by various codes and standards which depend on the type of vehicle the
battery is installed in. Selecting the wrong cable size could result in harm to the installer or user
and / or damage the Manager or other equipment installed in the system. The installer is responsible for
ensuring that the correct cable sizes are used when installing the Manager.
If undersized cables are used, overheating of cables could cause damage (including re) and charging
performance will likely be compromised.
Wiring must be installed in protected areas away from heat sources and sharp objects. Cables must
not be routed over or through moving parts of the vehicle. Additional protection such as conduit may
be required, especially if routing cables through the engine bay and exposed areas.
