So lots of you, well mainly one member, have convinced me the AC outlet in our engine compartment, used for the BoatSafe heater, is not such a good thing.
I plan to remove the outlet. I will need to connect the AC wire from the panel, which has a breaker on it, to the wire coming out of the heater. This connection will be in the engine compartment.
What do I need to use to make this connection to be 'legal' and safe? My first thought is splice them together, use wire connectors, wrap the connection with electrical tape. Is this OK to do for this application though?
Thanks
