That is similar to the type I used. You can see it above the wireless transmitter. Lofrans control box to the leftDredging this topic back up again.
I've now installed the windlass, took a while because I had to make a new plinth etc. Working well but still manual
Will be using 50mm² cables which are rated to 345A. Will need a fuse and/or breaker...
I could fit an ANL fuse, I was thinking 160A? Assuming the motor will draw around 100A in normal operation.
But I will want an isolator anyway, for safety. So maybe easiest to use a combined breaker/isolator.
I can get a Blue Sea thermal breaker here at a reasonable price, any reason not to use that?
Breaker, 285 Series Thermal Surfce Mount 150A - Budget Marine
I looked up the Lofrans breaker and it's about £250... in the UK... and probably impossible to buy here...
