Electrical System
6.11 Cabin 240/120 volt AC
Circuit Breaker Panel
The AC panel is located in a cabinet at the rear
of the cabin. 240 volt AC power is supplied to
the panel by the shore power cable or generator.
Main circuit breakers in the panel select the power
source and split the 240 volt current into two 120
volt circuits. The following is a description of the
AC panel equipment and the breakers that protect
the accessories:
AC Multimeters
There are two multimeters, one to monitor gen-
erator current and one to monitor shore current.
The multifunction meters monitor voltage, current
load and frequency when the boat is connected

to AC power. Buttons below the meter allow you
to select display options.
The voltage should be checked each time the AC
system is activated. The AC system and acces-
sories can be damaged by voltage that is below
105 volts or above 125 volts. You should monitor
the voltage and never operate your AC electrical
system if the voltage is below or above this range.
The amp or current load should be monitored
particularly when operating the air conditioners
and water heater. You should always be aware of
the electrical load needed to activate accessories
and manage the amperage being supplied so the
load can be kept within safe limits. Avoid exces-
sive current load that can overload the circuits or
