ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Blue Moon has both 110-volt AC power (Shore Power or off the
Generator) and 12-volt DC power from the
ship’s
batteries.
The 110 panel is found in the companionway, Port Side, while the DC
panel is found to the Starboard.
THE DOT SYSTEM
Anacortes Yacht Charters uses a colored dot system to identify those
breakers on each panel that are usually ON, OFF or used intermittently.
GREEN DOT signifies ON or usually ON
RED DOT signifies OFF or usually OFF
BLUE DOT signifies items like water pumps that should be switched on
only when being used.
YELLOW DOTS signifies electronics or items to be used with caution
NO DOTS signifies those breakers for very irregulars use with discretion
110 VOLT SYSTEM
Shore Power, Generator or the Inverter supply the 110 system aboard
Blue Moon. This also supplies power to all outlets and will charge all
the batteries aboard.
Blue Moon’s
50-foot Shore Power Cord is found in the aft cockpit, Port
side. To POWER UP the shore power cablemaster, the CABLEMASTER
switch on the 110 electrical panel must be ON position. This will allow
for the cable to be extended or retrieved by a toggle switch located
below the rail adjacent to the power cord.
