STRAIN-RELIEF AND CABLE MANAGEMENT
CAUTION: Wiring must be installed in protected areas away from heat sources, sharp objects and parts
of the vehicle that move during operation or maintenance. Additional protection such as conduit may be
required, especially if routing cables through the engine bay or exposed locations.
PROTECT AND SECURE THE CABLES
Allow for strain‑relief for cables, ensuring cables are not pulled or stretched tightly. This can cause
damage or allow the terminating fasteners to become loose and affect the performance of the Main Unit.
To avoid connections becoming loose, secure all cables to a xed point close to the Main Unit, Battery
Monitor and Display (ideally within 200 mm (8")). Cable ties, cable clips and P‑clips are recommended.
Flexible conduit can be used to manage and protect bundled cables.
A cable tie can be used to secure the two R‑Bus Interface cables and the vehicle ignition cable.
