I am going to install a 93 sv unit in my boat. What gauge wire should I run from console to ff. Boat is 16’ so probably be around 8’ ft of wire. Hooking straight to cranking battery with fuse at console. Seems like I read here once about twisting the 2 power wires to help interference. Is that a good idea to do. Do those wires need to be apart from transducer cable.
thanks for the help, I am a electronics rookie.
Twisting wires does help prevent interference. It will not hurt anything. Looks like it draws around 1.5 amps.
16awg stranded wire is pretty common at autoparts stores everywhere. It will carry twice the amps your require at the distance you wish to run. With most electrical wire oversizing is not a bad thing. Bigger wire sizes reduce voltage losses
10ga tinned marine wire.
Everything shows sold outQuote:
