It is a standards development member of the American National Standards Institute. [2] Founded in 1954, [3] it is currently chaired by Kenneth Weinbrecht of Ocean-Bay Marine Services, Inc. [4] It sets standards on items such as required electrical cable color coding, size and construction. [1]
The purpose of the Global Conformity Guidelines is to assist boat builders who comply with either ABYC or ISO standard systems, but are looking to start exporting to countries using the opposite system. So far, ICOMIA has published seven guidelines including Fuel Systems, Powering and Windows, Portlights and Hatches in the ICOMIA Online Library.
Alamitos Bay Yacht Club was founded on August 14, 1924, by twelve local sailors and boat builders. On May 30, 1926, ABYC was formally organized with Richard L. Russell Sr., elected the first Commodore, and ABYC was incorporated within the laws of the State of California on January 28, 1928.
The temperature rating of a wire or cable is generally the maximum safe ambient temperature that the wire can carry full-load power without the cable insulation melting, oxidizing, or self-igniting. A full-load wire does heat up slightly due to the metallic resistance of the wire, but this wire heating is factored into the cable's temperature ...

(E.g. 1 mm diameter wire is ~18 AWG, 2 mm diameter wire is ~12 AWG, and 4 mm diameter wire is ~6 AWG). This quadruples the cross-sectional area and conductance. A decrease of ten gauge numbers (E.g. from 12 AWG to 2 AWG) multiplies the area and weight by approximately 10, and reduces the electrical resistance (and increases the conductance ) by ...
