DC Electrical System
Always use caution when operating and
maintaining the DC electrical system. Fire or
explosion may result from improper use of
electrical systems.
DANGER
!
A 12-volt DC (Direct Current) electrical system is
equipped onboard. The DC electrical system is a
comprehensive system designed to meet present
and future 12-volt electrical needs. Wire-runs and
connections are positioned to prevent abrasion and
exposure to moisture, as well as to remain accessible
for inspection, repairs and the addition of aftermarket
electrical accessories.
Wires used throughout the DC electrical system are
plastic coated and color-coded. The electrical system is
virtually maintenance-free, with only the batteries requiring
periodic inspection and maintenance.
BATTERY CHARGERS
On a fully loaded yacht two battery chargers are
equipped onboard.
One 60-amp batter charger for maintaining the engine
and accessory batteries.
One 60-amp battery charger for maintaining the thruster
batteries. When this option is selected, this charger also
maintains the generator battery.
See
“Design Specifications” on page 6
for battery
details.
Each battery charger monitors and maintains the voltage
levels of one or more battery. When the chargers are ON,
they automatically charge the batteries when the voltage
drops below the manufacturer’s level.
