Hey all,
I am in the midst of installing a new suite of instruments on my '85 30+. I am sorting out where I want my nmea wires to run. The old instruments were powered via a single pair of +/- (red/black) wires. The new instruments require power for both the NMEA backbone and the chartplotter. Is it okay to attach both to the same wires? In other words, I would attach 3 black wires (power, backbone, plotter) at the same place and 3 red wires likewise.
If that is okay, what sort of connector can be used for that?
Thanks,
Evan
