Wiring Harness

(1) Console installed in the cabin. (2) Helm control box.

Details about the wiring specific to the helm, engine, thrusters, etc is described along with those components, but the overall wiring harness is described here.

Console

(1) The console and the helm control box are where all of the switches are for the wiring system so that is where we will start.

The console is constructed from 1/8 inch aluminum held together with screws.  It will house toggle switches, engine and electrical status indicators. 

(2) The helm control box contains additional switches for the engine and thruster controls.

There is only enough room in the console and helm control box for the switches and pots.  All of the relays, voltage regulators, and speed controllers are water proofed and housed on the backside on of the cabin. 

The wiring harness from the helm control box passes directly through the cabin wall and is sealed with ATV.  This provides enough cable so that the helm control box can be passed through the open top hatch and used while the pilot sits on top of the cabin.

(3) Through hull for console wiring harness. (4) Wring harness through hull mounted in the center frame.

(3) (4) The wiring harness from the console passes through a through hull box that will be sealed with machine wax and then mounted into the lower center frame of the cabin.  From there the wiring harness will run to the aft cabin wall.
