Installation
FUSE / BREAKER SPECIFICATIONS:
An over-current protection device (circuit breaker or fuse) must be used with this downrigger. Coast Guard require-
ments dictate that each ungrounded current-carrying conductor must be protected by a manually reset, trip-free
circuit breaker or fuse.
The following breaker size is a recommended guideline:
1 downrigger—30A @ 12 vdc
2 downriggers—60A @ 12 vdc
For additional information, please consult appropriate ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council) and Coast Guard
requirements.
