Detailed description

KU03 2x16AWG cable is a KU / KU-B cable with ETFE insulation for marine electronics wiring and demanding environments. It features tinned copper conductors and ETFE insulation suitable for low and high temperatures.

Configuration: 2x16 AWG. Shielding: unshielded. Manufacturer’s rated voltage: 600 Vac / 850 Vdc. Operating temperature: -55 °C to +150 °C. Outer diameter: 4 mm.

Onboard, use these cables for control links, signal wiring, or general wiring where thermal resistance, compactness, and jacket durability are critical. Separate low-signal wiring from power bundles and protect through-hull penetrations.

Expert opinion

Pol CONIN

Digital Manager

« Technical analysis: KU03 cable 2x16AWG tinned copper for marine applications »

Skysat advice: first check the number of conductors and the shielding, then the AWG cross-section. On a control bundle, leave service slack at both ends and label conductors before routing.

For a sensitive link, prefer shielded versions KU05/KU06 and connect the shield according to the selected ground architecture. Avoid tight bends and routing through hot or abrasive zones.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What material is the KU03 2x16AWG cable made of, and is it resistant to marine corrosion?

The KU03 2x16AWG cable is made with nickel-plated copper conductors. This material provides excellent resistance to corrosion, moisture, and salt spray, making it particularly suitable for demanding marine environments.

What does the designation '2x16AWG' mean for this cable?

The designation '2x16AWG' indicates that the cable consists of two conductors. Each conductor has a size of 16 AWG (American Wire Gauge), meaning it is suitable for low to medium power applications, ensuring stable electrical conductivity.

For which specific applications can this KU03 cable be used aboard a boat?

This cable is versatile and can be used for various marine applications, including:

Powering small electronic instruments.NMEA 0183 sensors.Signaling circuits.Navigation lights.Small pumps.Low-power VHF radios.Simple data networks or two-wire power circuits.

What are the advantages of nickel-plated copper over tinned copper for marine use?

Nickel-plated copper offers superior longevity and better resistance to corrosion compared to standard tinned copper. The nickel plating forms a more effective barrier against moisture and salt spray, thereby extending the cable’s lifespan in harsh marine environments and ensuring reliable performance.

Is the KU03 2x16AWG cable compatible with NMEA 0183 systems?

Yes, the KU03 2x16AWG cable is fully suitable for use with NMEA 0183 sensors and systems. Its tinned copper conductors and cross-section are appropriate for signal transfer over short to medium distances in these applications.
