One of the first tasks I assigned myself on purchasing the yacht was to install a battery monitoring system. After some research I opted for the Victron BMV-712 Smart monitor. This model has Bluetooth built in which is a huge benefit considering that you can access the monitored data from the comfort of the mobile.
I have installed the 500amp shunt just next to the batteries, keeping the wires as short as possible. I have used 70mm wire (as what has been initially installed by the manufacturer).
- DC Battery monitoring system
- AC Monitoring system
- USB Ports
- AC Power Ports
The datasheet for the Smart monitor can be downloaded from here
I'm also attaching a Current Cable Rating chart which I found online for reference.
