4.5 AC System (Optional)

The AC system is fed by the shore power outlet. It is equipped with an on-board galvanic isolation. The

galvanic isolator is equipped with a system status monitor. Refer to the galvanic isolator owner's manual. All

AC current is distributed to the AC accessories through individual circuit breakers located in the AC panel.

The main breaker in the panel protects the system from an overload and the reverse polarity light indicates

any problems due to an improper shore power supply. All AC outlets are protected by ground fault interrupters

to protect against electrical shock. A cord set is provided to supply power from the shore power outlet to the

boat’s AC system.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK IN WET WEATHER, AVOID MAKING

CONTACT WITH THE SHORE CABLE OR MAKING A CONNECTION TO A LIVE SHORE

OUTLET. NEVER SPRAY WATER ON ELECTRICAL CABLES WHILE WASHING DOWN

DECKS.

TO REDUCE THE POSSIBILITY OF AN ELECTRICAL SHOCK, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT

THE AC GROUND SYSTEM IS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AND THAT A PROPER CON-

NECTION EXISTS BETWEEN THE SHORE POWER CORD, THE SHORE POWER INLET,

THE BOAT BONDING SYSTEM AND THE OUTLET GROUND CIRCUITS. IF THERE IS

ANY DOUBT ABOUT THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUND CIRCUIT, A QUALIFIED MA-

RINE ELECTRICIAN SHOULD BE CONTACTED IMMEDIATELY AND THE AC SHOULD BE

DISCONNECTED UNTIL THE NECESSARY REPAIRS ARE COMPLETED.

RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE FOR MAKING A SHORE CONNECTION

Turn the AC main breaker to the “OFF” position. If the dockside outlet includes

a disconnect switch, turn it to the “OFF” position also.

To avoid strain on the cable make sure it has more slack than the mooring lines. Dress

the cable so that it cannot be damaged by chafing between the boat and the dock.

Make sure the cable does not come in contact with the water. Then connect the cable

in the plug inlet making sure the connection plug includes a three-prong plug with

a ground wire. Tighten the lock rings on both the shore and the boat connector plugs.

Turn the dockside disconnect switch or circuit breaker to the “ON” position and check for proper polarity.

If reverse polarity has been achieved, the red polarity indicator in the AC panel will light. If this should happen,

make sure the main breaker on the panel is in the “OFF” position and turn the dock power switch or breaker

off. A special relay attached to the main breaker should automatically turn the main breaker off whenever

reverse polarity is achieved. Notify a qualified electrician to check the wiring at the dock outlet. If the red

polarity light does not illuminate when power is supplied to the panel, the polarity is correct and the AC main

switch can be moved to the “ON” position.

SWIMMING NEAR A BOAT OPERATING ON AC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CAN LEAD TO

SEVERE SHOCK AND DEATH. NEVER SWIM OR ALLOW SWIMMING WHEN AC SYS-

TEM IS IN USE.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CORRECT THE WIRING YOURSELF. ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN

CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. ALWAYS HAVE A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN

CHECK WIRING.
