11.2.5 Actuator harnesses
The actuator harness, ordered separately from the actuator, is a bundle of three cables: two DC power supply cables and a communications cable with multiple pigtails.
Figure 11-15. Straight actuator harness, and 180° actuator harness.
The harness is available with different CAN1 lengths, and in straight and 180° connector styles, to suit your installation requirements. Not all parts of the harness are the same length; table 11-3 shows the length of each component of the harness. When determining which harness to order, consider: • Two harness styles are available for the actuator in order to meet the minimum bend radius of the cables. The straight harness is for boats with tight clearance to the bottom of the splashwell and the 180° harness is for boats with tight clearance to the side of the splashwell. The splashwell clearance requirement for the two harness styles are shown in figure 11-16 and figure 11-17. • The longer harnesses are designed for single-engine applications in which the helm station can be reached without extending the CAN1 harness. • In multi-engine applications you will need to use a CAN1 hub or a Y-harness to join both CAN1 harnesses together at the aft of the boat. You may need to use different harness lengths for the port and starboard actuator if you locate the hub/Y-harness on one side of the boat.
