Installation

Components Included

Required Tools

• Hole Saw, drill or step drill suitable for cable glands (see information on back).

• Drill motor suitable for above

• Screw Drivers

• Knife

• Measuring device

• Wire cutters and Crimpers

Required Parts

• Suitable ring terminals for circuit breaker and grounding connections

• In some installations it may be desirable to attach a mounting substrate to the
hull with adhesive or epoxy instead of screwing directly to the hull.

Installing the Enclosure Panel

• The Surface Mount System Enclosure Panel should be installed by a certied
marine electrician.

• Plan the installation by determining where the enclosure will be mounted

o Per ABYC, the enclosure cannot be mounted further than the reach of a 10'

cable from the AC power inlet
o Consider the needed clearances to access the enclosure and open the sealed cover

o Allow for a wire drip loop outside the enclosure and sufcient service loop

for wires inside the enclosure

• Determine which included glands are needed. It is recommended that glands be

installed on the bottom of the enclosure to maintain the waterproof integrity of

the sealed enclosure.

• Smaller glands may permit convenient installation of a galvanic isolator if used

in the systems. In this case the line safety ground wire would exit the enclosure

to the galvanic isolator and the boat side of the galvanic isolator would return to

the enclosure to join the internal connections and the ground from the load side
power cable.

• Try all cable glands on the wire for correct t before proceeding.

• Flat cables can be manipulated to a nearly round shape to t and seal better
in the gland.

• Large round cables with #6 Wire may be a very tight t in the cable gland.
Dismantle the gland and use wire lubricant to ease cable through the rubber
seal if necessary.

• When drilling holes for cable glands, be sure to allow sufcient clearance inside
for the nut. The best location is as close to the back of the enclosure as
possible and still allow for the nut.
