Method · provenance · limits

Facts, assumptions and calculations stay separate.

Every component folio is built to show what came from the catalog, what Crimp assumed for the reference case, and what the electrical engine calculated from those inputs.

01

Catalog facts

Names, models, electrical ratings and terminal roles come from Crimp's maintained component catalog. Treat them as planning data and confirm the current manufacturer manual, exact part revision and installed nameplate before ordering or wiring.

02

Reference assumptions

The page states its nominal voltage, one-way cable length, continuous current basis and voltage-drop result. Changing the route, ambient conditions, conductor bundle or protection family can change the answer.

03

Deterministic sizing

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 same conductor table, voltage-drop budget, terminal clamp and fuse ladder used by the Crimp canvas produce every published reference value.

04

AI's limited role

The optional fit check uses AI to interpret a written system description into parts and connections. It cannot emit conductor sizes, fuse ratings or voltage-drop values; Crimp's deterministic engine computes those after the topology is validated.

Who maintains this

Published and maintained by Crimp.

Catalog and engine changes are versioned with the product. These pages are planning references, not installation approval: a qualified installer remains responsible for the actual route, derating, fault protection and local compliance.
