Cable Considerations
Zip ties and cable clamps can over-tighten and damage or break the cable, or cause cable fatigue due to repeated rotation of the motor.
You should use black electrical tape to secure the cable above and below the rotating joint. If you secure the cable with zip ties, do not over-tighten the zip ties.
You should secure the cable above and below the pivot joint of your trolling motor.
You should create a service loop at least 25 cm (10 in.) long in the cable, with the rotating joint centered on the loop.
