How the Trolling 55 is wired
The run drawn here is the 3 m reference run sized below. Sized against ABYC E-11. Boats built to UK or EU rules answer to ISO 13297 — check these figures against it before you build. Confirm your own run length, routing and terminations before ordering — open this part in the designer to size it against your actual system.
What size cable and fuse does the Trolling 55 need?
Sized against ABYC E-11. Boats built to UK or EU rules answer to ISO 13297 — check these figures against it before you build. The design current is the part's continuous draw. The Crimp engine applies its ordinary continuous-load headroom, voltage-drop budget, terminal clamp, and standard fuse ladder. The 3 m one-way run is a stated reference, not a universal installation prescription.

Catalog profile
The manufacturer, model, ratings and terminal map are maintained as planning data in Crimp's component catalog. Confirm the current manufacturer manual, exact revision and installed nameplate before ordering or wiring.
Engine reference
Sized against ABYC E-11. Boats built to UK or EU rules answer to ISO 13297 — check these figures against it before you build. The published conductor, fuse and voltage-drop result uses the visible reference length and current basis; it is not a universal installation prescription.
