Where to buy

Specifications

Type
Cable

This is the VE.Direct Cable from Victron Energy in the 1,8 m length, part number ASS030530218. It belongs to a VE.Direct cable range that is sold in different lengths. Victron publishes a Declaration of Conformity covering its VE.Direct, RJ12 and RJ45 cables, so this lead is part of a documented cable family. At 1,8 m it is a short lead, so the two units it joins need to be mounted close together.

Our take

At 1,8 m this VE.Direct cable is a short lead, so the two units it joins have to be mounted close together. The range comes in different lengths, so measure the route first and pick the length to match.

From our buying guide

On a boat subpart I covers, an electrical component must not ignite fuel vapor around it unless it is isolated from gasoline fuel sources. Ignition protection is the maker's statement.

Check before you buy:

  • 33 CFR 183 subpart I applies to boats that have a gasoline engine, except an outboard, so a gasoline generator counts.
  • On a boat subpart I covers, each ungrounded output conductor from a battery needs a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse within 72 inches of the battery.
