Electrical System
WARNING
DANGER
Check the ELCI located in the panel for faults. The
green “POWER” LED should show steady illumina-
tion and the red “FAULT” LED should remain off.
The ELCI trips and opens the main circuit when
there is a ground fault condition. If the red LED is
continuously illuminated the ELCI has tripped due
to a ground fault condition. Some faults are self-
clearing. Try resetting the ELCI once. If the green
LED shows steady illumination and the ElCI does
not trip again, the circuit is correct and activated.
If the reversed polarity light is lit or the ELCI con-
tinues to trip and the red “FAULT” LED is lit after
being reset there is a problem with the AC electri-
cal system and it is unsafe to use. Make sure the
Shore Main breaker on the panel is in the “OFF”
position and turn the dock power switch or breaker
off. Disconnect the shore power supply cord from
the boat and notify a qualified marine electrician
to check the wiring and correct the problem.
REVERSED POLARITY AND GROUND FAULT CONDITIONS
WILL DAMAGE THE SYSTEM AND EXPOSE PASSENGERS
TO ELECTROCUTION HAZARDS THAT WILL CAUSE SEVERE
INJURY OR DEATH. THIS CONDITION COULD ALSO CAUSE
A FIRE IN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. NEVER OPERATE THE
AC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WITH REVERSED POLARITY OR A
GROUND FAULT CONDITION.
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR EVEN
DEATH. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CORRECT THE WIRING
YOURSELF. ALWAYS HAVE A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CHECK
WIRING.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY FROM ANY ELECTRICAL CABLES OR
EQUIPMENT AND ALWAYS USE GROUNDED APPLIANCES ON
BOARD YOUR BOAT.
UNDETECTED FAULTS IN THE AC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
COULD CAUSE THE WATER AROUND THE BOAT TO BECOME
ENERGIZED. THIS COULD CAUSE A SEVERE SHOCK OR EVEN
DEATH TO SOMEONE IN THE WATER NEAR THE BOAT. NEVER
SWIM OR ALLOW SWIMMING AROUND THE BOAT WHEN THE AC
SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED BY THE SHORE POWER CONNECTION
OR THE GENERATOR.
