V-2-1- Wiring OPEN 3.1 / 3.4 /4.8 options

The boat is fitted with a USB/12V plug as standard. However, it is also possible to add extra accessories
under certain conditions:
 The accessories you want to add must be connected to the console.
 The accessories come in two categories:
A → accessories that are or may be used continuously during normal boat operation,
B → accessories that are used intermittently.
A
Windscreen wipers
Radio
Depth sounder
GPS
Searchlight
Alarm system
Refrigerator
VHF

You may connect the options directly to the positive and negative console ground terminal (within
the max. power limits), using an approved fuse-holder.
NOTE: If you are getting several pieces of electrical equipment installed, the total immediate
consumption could potentially exceed your outboard engine's charge capacity.
For example, the electrical wiring harness can accept instant consumption of 570 W (including
navigation lights and bilge pump), which is a little less than a 48A output current. The alternators in
the engines fitted generally provide 15 A when at full throttle. Check your engine's technical
documentation. You should therefore avoid using this equipment over a long period of time, as you
run the risk of emptying the battery and not being able to restart the engine.

WARNING
You must make sure that the total power of the accessories you add in
column A is 240W (20A) or less AND that the max power of an
accessory in column B is 72W (6A) or less.
The sections of the different cables in the wiring circuit were
calculated using these figures; not following this rule may lead to
electrical faults and cause short circuits.
