Batteries/Inverter
•
Cascadia has a 2000 watt Xantrex inverter so 110V power can be used
at any time. Be careful as it is easy to draw the batteries down. We
suggest leaving the inverter turned off unless you need 110V power;
the main risk is running the house batteries low without realizing it.
The inverter control is just below the Navicolor monitor system on
the electrical panel. The button on the lower left corner is the
inverter on/off switch and is the only button needed on the control
panel. The additional controls and buttons on the inverter control
panel are not active as we use the Navicolor system for monitoring
instead of the inverter system.
•
You only need to push the on/off button once to turn the inverter on.
(Pushing the same button once when the inverter is on will turn it
off)
•
The breaker for the inverter is located next to the main breaker panel
in the aft port cabin. We generally leave this on.
