Where to buy

Specifications

Type
Cable

This is Victron's VE.Direct to USB interface, a cable that links a product with a VE.Direct port to a device with a USB port, a computer for example. It also lets a CCGX take in more than two VE.Direct products at once. Victron publishes a declaration of conformity for its interfaces, and an IEC 60335-1 safety certificate covers 19 interfaces.

Our take

Two uses are stated for this interface: linking a VE.Direct product to a computer's USB port, and putting more than two VE.Direct products onto a single CCGX. Match your need to one of those two before choosing 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.
