Specifications

Type
Cable
Length
3 m

This is the VE.Direct Cable from Victron Energy in the 3 m length, part number ASS030530230. 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. The 3 m length leaves some room between the two units it joins, though the route still needs measuring.

Our take

The 3 m length of this VE.Direct cable leaves some room between the two units it joins, but the run still has to be measured along the actual route. The range comes in different lengths if 3 m is wrong.

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.
