white shore power cord. This system powers everything on the AC circuit breaker panel:

Battery charger

Water heater
Connecting to shore power:
Check the power rating/plug size of the nearest dock receptacle (that is 30 amps, 20 amps, or 15 amps). If
necessary, add a shore power cord adapter located in the compartment forward of the navigation station. The
procedure to hook up to shore power is as follows:
1. Make sure the “AC Main” circuit breaker is off.
2. Turn off the circuit breaker located at the shore side outlet on the dock.
3. Plug the boat side of the cord in first on the transom and then plug the cord to the shore side outlet. Give
the plug a small twist clockwise to lock.
4. Turn on the circuit breaker at the dock.
5. Turn on the “AC Main” circuit breaker and any of the circuit breakers for the 110 volt AC systems
desired.
Immediately check the polarity indicator on the 110 AC panel to ensure proper polarity. If the
reverse polarity indicator is illuminated, disconnect the power, find another power source, and inform
the dock master.
Note: in addition to the “AC Main circuit breaker there is a “shore power breaker” located in the aft, port
lazarette.

The shore power cords coming off the bow can be wrapped loosely around the bowline.
On shore power, the electrical outlets will be functional under the 110 volt AC system. They will not work
under the 12-volt DC system.
12 Volt DC System
This system is powered by the marine batteries aboard Libertas and powers everything onboard not powered
by the 110 volt AC system.
