Interesting question. The term ‘ground’ probably should be distinguished from

You do run a wire to the engine, usually 2 gauge, but only one. Many

Dave — tie the shield to the negative power wire at the power supply lead to
the plotter. I’m sure there’s no RF grounding system on most of our boats; you
start seeing it on larger vessels or those with SSB installations.

Hi- I am installing a new Raymarine e95 chart plotter and am confused by the
instructions with respect to grounding. The cable includes both a Negative
(black) wire and a black Ground (drain) wire. Here is what the install manual
says:
Grounding — Dedicated drain wire
The power cable supplied
