Cabin DC Accessory Breaker Panel
Power is distributed to the 12-volt cabin accessories through
individual circuit breakers located in the DC panel. A main breaker,
located near the battery selector switches, protects the system from
an overload. Some 12-volt accessories are operated directly by the
circuit breaker in the panel while others are operated by switches
fed by the panel breakers.
PROPER FUSE OR BREAKER PROTECTION MUST BE PROVIDED FOR ALL 12-VOLT
EQUIPMENT ADDED. DO NOT OVERLOAD THE ACCESSORY CIRCUIT BREAKERS OR
OTHER CIRCUITRY THROUGH ADDITIONAL 12-VOLT EQUIPMENT.
