Icemaker - The ICEMAKER breaker must be ON to sup-
ply power to the icemaker. The icemaker is standard on
the 328 Vista® and optional on the 298 Vista®.
Receptacles - The OUTLET circuit breakers supply power
to the corresponding receptacles in the AC system.
Air Conditioner - The AIR CONDITIONER circuit breaker
supplies power to the air conditioner. Dual Dockside is
installed on the 298/328 with this option. Refer to Sec-
tion L-4 - Air Conditioning in this manual for more informa-
tion.
Most receptacle circuits are capable of handling 15 am-
peres. Refer to Table III for a list of equipment and the
electrical currents usually required to operate these items.
For 220 volt, 50 Hertz models, divide all of the current
ratings below by 2. Usually, the power requirement is
specified on the electrical item. This is only an ap-
proximation of the electric current usage normally experi-
enced.

C. Reverse Polarity Indicator
Improper grounds or reversed polarity at shore power are
a source of serious electrical hazard. The reverse polarity
light will indicate if a problem exists at the 120 AC electri-
cal system shore connection
.
If a problem exists, the reverse polarity indicator light will
come on when the shore power cable is attached to the
inlet. DO NOT activate the shore power switch in the
cabin when the reverse polarity light is on.
ALWAYS check the reverse polarity indicator
light in the AC distribution panel immediately
upon connecting the shore power cord before
turning on the AC SHORE POWER circuit bre-
aker. If the light is on, a problem with a reversed
electrical connection exists. Disconnect the
shore power cord immediately. Notify the mari-
na and have the docks shore power connection
inspected.
Under proper operating conditions, the reverse polarity
indicator iight
will not
be on. A green light is provided for
the shore power and will be ON when dockside power is
being used.
NOTICE
Some marina shore power systems may be im-
properly grounded to retard electrolysis (see Sec-
tion H-9 - Stray Current Corrosion). Before us-
ing any 120 volt equipment, make sure the reve-
rse polarity light does not activate when con-
necting the cord to the inlet.
D. Ground Fault Current Interrupters (GFCI)
The ground fault current interrupter (GFCI) is a device
which protects against hazardous electrical shock from
improper ground. An appliance electrical cord with worn
insulation or damp equipment may have stray current
which will run through electrical grounds. Stray current
as above will result in an electrical shock.
One GFCI receptacle will protect all of the receptacles
on the circuit. A GFCI may be used as a receptacle as
well as an interrupter.
To test:
Push the black test button and the red reset button should
pop out from the inner surface. The receptacle and the
circuit are now off.
Push the reset button in until it clicks to reset it. If it
does not reset, there is either a short in the circuit or the
equipment being used, or a ground fault in the equip-
ment. Unplug all appliances and reset the GFCI. One at
a time, plug the equipment back in and turn it on. The
item that causes the GFCI to trip is the problem item
and should
not
be used.
