In the event of an electrical fault it’s important that all power to the electrical system can be cut off so that cables and circuits do not remain live. This will enable you to control any overheating which could start a fire, allow repairs to be safely made on any blown fuse or damaged cabling and reset the tripped circuit breaker. A battery master switch or switches, capable of disconnecting the system – including the starter circuits – must be fitted in a readily accessible position, as close to the battery as possible.
WHERE SHOULD I POSITION AND INSTALL MY BATTERY MASTER SWITCH?
You must be able to get at the switch without having to move anything out of the way, or use tools or keys to reach it.
If you can’t see the battery master switch, you must mark its position very clearly so that emergency services or other crew members can easily locate it in the event of an emergency.
WHAT TYPE OF BATTERY MASTER SWITCH WILL I NEED?
The switch that you choose must be capable of carrying the maximum current of the system, including when the engine is started. If there are separate circuits connected to separate batteries, each of them must have a battery master switch. A combined switch can be used, for example in a two battery system, where one battery is used for starting the boat’s engine and the other is used for domestic services.
Electrical equipment, such as bilge pumps, security alarms, fire pumps and navigation equipment – some of which may have electronic memories – can bypass the master battery switch, as long as they’re protected separately by fuses or circuit breakers. This will enable them to carry on functioning safely but still disconnect in the event of a short circuit or overload fault.
KT has released a range of Battery Master Switches and Voltage Sensitive Relays, Now available.

KT Black Cable Ties are weather resistant due to the UV Stabilized Nylon 6/6 material.
This allows the cable ties to be used in continuous or extended exposure to outdoor sunlight. The nylon cable tie is a weather resistant grade, enduring additional ultraviolet (UV) light.
This grade is produced by incorporating Black Carbon in the nylon resin. UV Stabilized Nylon cable ties are available only in black and have a life expectancy of up to 10 years in direct sunlight.
KT ranges a large variety of Weather Resistant Cable Ties which are all suited for a variety of applications. KT’s Nylon Cable Tie Range Includes:
KT Black UV Nylon Cable Ties are available in Light Duty, Medium Duty, Heavy Duty and Extra Long. All black Cable Ties are UV treated and therefore are suitable for use in outdoor environments. All standard cable tie packs are available in packs of 100. Carton sizes vary depending on the size of the cable tie. Sizes from 100mm x 2.5mm Wide up to 370mm x 4.8mm.
Cable Ties are also available in packs of 25. Standard Cable Ties are also available in a specialised 1000 pack including a bonus Promotional Bag.
Push Mount Cable Ties
When a hole is drilled, the head of this tie can then be pushed into the hole, leaving the remaining tie to be bundled around cabling or harness. Push Mount Ties are
available in black and natural colouring. These are available in packs of 100 or specialised packs of 20.
Releasable Cable Ties
Releasable ties can be used temporarily and released if need be. The ability for these ties to be re-used makes them quite popular.
Releasable Ties are available in black and natural colouring. These are available in packs of 100 or specialised packs of 20.
Mounting Head Cable Ties
Mounting head cable ties have a head on the tie to fix to a surface. These are available in packs of 100 or specialized
packs of 20. Cable tie guns such as KTLDCTG, KTHDCTG/P, KTHDCTG/M are recommended to use with Mounting Head Cable Ties.
Identification Cable Ties
Identification Cable Ties have a flat surface area where information can be written using permanent markers. Identification ties are available in black and natural
colouring. These are available in packs of 100 or specialized packs of 20.
What is a Cable Tie?
Cable ties are usually used as fasteners. A ratcheting system allows the ties to be tightened without causing damage to the individual cables or wires. Cable Ties may also be known as ‘Zip Ties’.
Cable Ties are commonly used to harness and bundle items, usually wires. Functioning like straps, cable ties are available in miniature sizes for holding small loads, and are also fabricated in long lengths and strong tensile strengths for large items or bundles. Most Cable Ties feature serrated “teeth” on one end, which function by locking inside thehead, located on the other side of the strap.
Once the pointed tip of the cable tie has been pulled through the case and past the ratchet, it is prevented from being pulled back; the resulting loop may only be pulled tighter. This allows several cables to be bound together into a cable tree. Cable Ties can be customised in numerous colors or dimensions, according to application requirements. Additionally, cable ties may be UV-protected or manufactured using 304 & 316 Stainless Steel.
How are Cable Ties Applied?
Cable Ties can be applied by hand, or by using a Cable Tie Gun, depending on what the Cable Tie is being used for. A Cable Tie Gun is a tensioning device or tool that is used to apply a cable tie with a specific degree of tension. The tool may cut off the excess Cable Tie with the head in order to avoid a sharp edge which might otherwise cause injury. Some applications require that a Cable Tie Gun is used, due to requiring a specific tension to meet specific standards and requirements.

KT SIGNATURE TRUCK & TRAILER LAMPS FEATURE SUPERIOR L.E.D TECHNOLOGY
The KT Trailer Lamp range was developed with the specific goal in mind of producing the very best performing trailer lamp available in the global market. It was determined that to do this, the output of the light had to be superior to any lamp currently available.
It was noted by the KT team that interior lighting for homes and buildings is very bright, smooth and soft. Yet for vehicle lighting, the light output is always oddly shaped, streaked with patterns and essentially not as effective as it could be.
This is generally because trailer lighting requires specific size housings which limits design techniques and the passing of ECE and ADR, further restricting what can be achieved.
Working within this framework, the strategy became about re-creating the light source itself, not the housing or the lens. The KT team then set about designing an all new Light emitting Diode, that, although all looking the same, can be changed internally to create different angles of light. This allowed us to step away from the use of lens optics and reflectors to direct the light.
The results in light output can be seen below, with the KT lamps delivering the most incredibly even light output.
The performance gains of this technology ensures that the lamps pass ECE and ADR with ease, they are more noticeable from all angles on the road, making them safer.
Another safety benefit is the use of clear lenses and housings, as the transition from clear to red or amber is so dramatic, the attention these lamps demand from road users is far greater than that of traditional lamps, further increasing road safety.

What are Snap Bushings and what Applications are they used for?
Snap Bushings provide a quick, simple and low cost means of protecting cables, hoses, ropes etc, from damage from raw edged holes. They are commonly used in applications where wire and cable can be exposed to sharp metal edges and rubbing. Adding Snap bushings to your metal compartments help eliminate abrasion and protect the wire and harness from abrasion and cutting. KT snap bushings are made of Snap Bushings are manufactured using black UL approved Nylon6/6 and feature a flammability rating of 94V-2.
Example of Open Snap Bushings used on Panels.
Snap bushings are as easy as they sound; once you have your hole cut, you simply snap the bushing into place.
What is the Difference between an Open Snap Bushing and a Closed Snap Bushing?
An Open Snap Bushing (as displayed in the below photo) has an open end at both ends to pass cable through a surface such as a wall. This protects the cable from raw or sharp edges.
KT Cable Accessories Snap Bushings use quality UL approved 6/6 nylon. Flammability rating of 94V-2. Snap Bushings are designed to protect from sharp edges where you may be running cable and hoses through metal objects.
A Closed Snap Bushing has one surface Sealed and is used to seal a hole neatly (as per photo below) This prevents anything being passed through the hole. The Snap Bushing can be easily pushed into place using pressure of your fingers. This may be a temporary seal and can be removed easily if required.
Once side of the Closed Snap Bushing is Sealed to seal off holes.
KT Ranges many sizes of Open and Closed Snap Bushings in Bulk, Blister Packs and Kit Assortments:
Cable protection products are designed for protecting cables from harsh environments and also keeping cables under control, preventing accidental tripping or disconnections in your environment. Here are just five (5) ways KT can help you protect your cables.

Trailer Adaptors may be used to easily mate trailers and vehicles with different end Plugs or Sockets. This prevents the need to re-install another Plug or Socket to Match. For Example: If you are running a 7 Pin Flat Trailer Socket from your Vehicle and a Small Round Trailer Plug on your Trailer, you would require a 7 Pin Flat Trailer Plug to a 7 Pin Small Round Trailer Socket Adaptor to complete your connection.
Using a Trailer Adaptor entails many benefits. Not only does it prevent the user having to re-install a trailer Plug or Socket to match (if they have a miss-matching Plug on the Car to what is installed on the Trailer), but also provides extra length between the Car and Trailer connections, making it popular in the caravan and 4WD markets.
The innovative ideas from KT continue in the release of the first ever Car Coil Adaptor. In the past, problems of cable strain on towed vehicles can pull out the Adaptor and similarly should the lead be to long then the cable can drag . The KT Car Coil Adaptor features a 1 meter of coiled cable allowing flexibility and prevents Adaptors being pulled out of sockets.
About the In-Built LED Circuit Tester:
Switch to turn ‘On’ LED Circuit Tester.
The Inbuilt circuit tester was introduced to the Trailer Plugs, Sockets and Adaptors to ensure a ‘Safer Towing’ environment and spread awareness of trailer light circuit failures for all road users by providing products suitable for a wide range of markets.
Incorporating the LED Trailer Plug which features an in-built LED Circuit Tester was a great KT innovation. The In-built LED Circuit Tester enables the user to check that there is power to each wiring circuit and detects any wiring faults, loose connections and corroded pins caused by general ‘wear and tear’. The LED Trailer Plug features 6 LED’s. When the Plug is switched ‘On’ these LED’s illuminate to indicate a secure power connection. If any of the LED’s are not illuminated, this indicates a faulty connection.
Inbuilt LED Circuit Tester helps indicate faulty circuits. It can test Left & Right Indicators, Brake (Stop) Lights, Park Lights, Reverse/Auxilliary and Service Brake Circuits to Ensure Power is running through to each circuit.
How to use the In-Built Circuit Tester on any KT LED Adaptor:
Connect the adaptor to the vehicle socket and the trailer plug. The inbuilt tester will check that the electrical circuit for the Indicators, Park Lights, Brake Lights, Service Brakes and Auxiliary by pressing down the switch. Providing that the tested circuit has power from the application then an LED light will illuminate to verify that power is passing through the connector.
If any LED’s fail to illuminate the tester will assist in determining where the fault is located. If no LED’s illuminate then check the earth connections at the vehicle trailer socket. Generally this is a white wire.Should any LED’s in indicators, park or brake fail to operate then check the relevant connection at the trailer socket on the vehicle.Should a different LED illuminate to the circuit being tested then there will be a cross wired connection at the trailer socket. This can be corrected by fitting the trailer cable to the correct terminal connection in the socket.
Should your vehicle not be wired for auxiliary or service brakes then the 2 relevant LED’s will not illuminate as there will be no power. To turn off the tester simply press button.
The KT LED Trailer Coil Adapter will not detect broken or damaged cable from the plug to the application nor will it detect faulty globes or LED lights.

The LED Car Coil Extensions Range came about after extensive marketing research. It was discovered that many Trailer owners preferred to have a Trailer Socket on their Vehicle and a Trailer Socket on their Trailer at all times. The idea of this was that the Trailer Socket contains a spring-loaded dust-proof cover and by leaving this on the Vehicle and Trailer, the pins would always be protected from dirt and dust entering the socket and always protected from harsh weather conditions.
