when there is not enough water in them to automatically activate the sump
pumps.
2.2.2 DC Control Center
The DC Control Center, located in a cabinet either above the galley counter
or on the starboard salon bulkhead, manages the power supply to most of
the boat’s 12-volt equipment, except for the bridge electronics. To provide
power to this breaker panel:
1. Turn the “house” battery master disconnect switch to the “ON” posi-
tion.
2. On the Safety Breaker Panel, switch the Main - One circuit breaker
“ON.”
The DC Control Center contains the switches, gauges, and circuit breakers
described below.
