Victron Energy Lynx Distributor (M10) - LYN060102010

The Lynx Distributor M10 has a positive and a negative busbar. The positive busbar has four connections, each protected by its own MEGA fuse. The negative busbar has four connections and a ground connection. It is the current Lynx Distributor: Victron no longer makes the older M8 version.

Fuse LEDs: only with a Lynx Smart BMS or Lynx Shunt VE.Can

The Distributor gets the power for its LEDs over the RJ10 cable from a Lynx Smart BMS or a Lynx Shunt VE.Can. Without one of those, the LEDs stay off and the Distributor simply works as a fused busbar. Most of our builds don't use a Lynx Smart BMS, so in most systems the LEDs are never lit.

If you do power the LEDs, Victron's manual says to fit all four fuses, with a dummy fuse in any unused way, so the red warning LED doesn't light. Only a Lynx Smart BMS can read the fuse status and show it in VictronConnect (up to four Distributors); a Lynx Shunt VE.Can can't.

Fitting it

• M10 and M8 Lynx modules can't be bolted straight to each other. This M10 Distributor joins the Lynx Class-T Power In (M10) and other M10 modules.
• Torque from Victron's manual: M10 busbar nuts 33 Nm (17 Nm on units with a serial number before HQ2340), M8 nuts 14 Nm. Before fitting the fuses, check the bottom nuts in the middle row are at 10 Nm.
• Not sure what size cable or MEGA fuse each way needs? Our cable size calculator works it out from Victron's own figures.
