5 m

This is the 5m version of the Victron VE.Direct cable, with a right angle connector on one side only. The range comes in different lengths and includes both straight and 90 degree models. The 5m length gives plenty of reach between a device and its VE.Direct port, while the angled plug on one end keeps that end low against the device.

Our take

The right angle connector on one side of this 5m VE.Direct cable lets that end lie along the device rather than point straight out, while the 5m length leaves room to route the run. Only one end is angled, so plan which port gets it.

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.
