 Power Accessories Circuit Breaker, Quick Disconnect, and Plug and Receptacle 

CONDUCTOR GAUGE AND CIRCUIT BREAKER SIZING TABLE

  • This conductor and circuit breaker sizing table are only valid for the following assumptions:
    1. No more than 2 conductors are bundled together inside of a sheath or conduit outside of engine spaces.
    2. Each conductor has 105° C temp-rated insulation
    3. No more than 3% voltage drop allowed at full motor power based on published product power requirements
  • *The 30lb thrust motor has been optimized to perform as a portable trolling motor. We therefore do not recommend altering the wire length as it can adversely affect its performance.
  • NOTICE: Wire Extension Length refers to the distance from the batteries to the trolling motor leads. Consult website for available thrust options. Maximum Amp Draw values only occur intermittently during select conditions and should not be used as continuous amp load ratings.
  • Reference United States Code of Federal Regulations: 33 CFR 183 – Boats and Associated Equipment ABYC E-11: AC and DC Electrical Systems on Boats
