BOAT ELECTRICAL

The electrical system is divided into two distribution systems: 110 volt or AC and 12

volt or DC. The systems are controlled from the electrical panel located at the Nav

station and the battery switches located in the starboard stateroom.

When not connected to shore power your batteries provide most of your electrical

power. Therefore the use of onboard electricity needs to be monitored very

carefully.

Turn off electrical

devices

when they are not being used (lights,

instruments, etc.)

110 Volt or AC (Alternating Current)

Shore Power supports all AC equipment and receptacles on board as well as the

battery charger.

To connect to shore power plug the power cord into the boat and then into the dock

receptacle. Check your power rating/plug size of the dock receptacle (i.e. 30amp,

20amp etc.) Secure the cord around the shore power electrical receptacle and off the

bow (i.e. wrap around bowline a few times) turn the dock power breaker on. There

is a fault breaker in the port aft cockpit locker.

On the boat, turn the shore circuit breaker on at the electrical panel. Turn on

appropriate breakers for battery charger, etc. Watch your voltmeter for load. If the

load exceeds the voltage, it will pop the breaker. If this occurs, wait to turn on one

of your systems (i.e. water heater) until the use of power decreases.

Inverter

The Inverter is powered by the house batteries. The amount of DC power is

limited

to the capacity of these batteries so

use it very sparingly

!!! This means use the

inverter to charge your cell phone batteries or computers.

When connected to shore power, your battery charger will recharge all the 12-volt

start and house batteries. Should you detect the charger is failing to charge the

batteries, check the circuit breaker on the AC panel to make certain that it is on.

House 12-volt System

Two

battery banks support your 12 volt system: #1 Engine Start and #2 House

battery and are located under the port stateroom bed. Normally you will leave the

switches on while running.

When anchored or moored,

turn off the #1 battery

. Turn switch to the horizontal

position. Note: Changing the position of the battery switches with the engine

running

will cause damage!

Only change positions with the engine off!

Your 12 volt panel shows all the systems supported by your batteries. Primarily you

will be turning on these breakers for lights, water pressure, electronics, etc. Bilge

pumps will always be left on. Your breaker for the propane and should be turned off

after every use.

When disconnected from shore power, the 12–volt systems will drain the battery

especially when at anchor

. Monitor your batteries very carefully

. The DC voltmeter

on the DC panel can be switched between your battery banks to measure battery
