Electrical Systems - Section H
Push the black test button and the red reset button
should pop out from the inner surface. The recep tacle
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
equipment. Unplug all appliances and reset the GFCI.
One at a time, plug the equip ment back in and turn it
on. The item that caus es the GFCI to trip is the
problem item and should
not
be used.
H - 9 GENERATOR
A generator is standard on the 358 Vista
®
models. It
provides 120 Volt (220V) AC power when the boat is
away from the dock. The gener ator can be operated
while running at or below cruising speed. The genera-
tor should not be operated when the boat is being run
at high speeds.
Insufficient cooling water may be
avail able due to the speed.
A generator factory installed by Four Winns is capable
of providing sufficient power for most electrical needs
including cooking, refrigeration, and air conditioning.
It is possible to overload the generator by trying
to operate too much equip ment at one time
. The
circuit breaker that protects the output cir cuits on the
generator set will trip should that occur. See the
generator manu facturers information for specifications
and addi tional de tails.
If you wish to use dock side power, be sure the
generator is off, connect the shore power cords as
explained in Section H-8A, and turn on the Shore
Power breakers on the AC cabin panel. If you wish
to use generator power:
1. Be sure the shore power cord(s) are dis con nected.
2. Check the bilge for fumes, operate the blower for
at least 4 minutes, and verify blower operation.
3. Open the generator’s seacock valve (labeled
GENERATOR) to allow water flow to the genera
-
tor for cooling purposes.
C. Reverse Polarity Indicator
Improp er 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 con nection.
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.
AL W AYS check the re v erse po larity indi cator
light in the AC dis tri bu tion pan el im me di ately
upon con nect ing the shore pow er cord before
turn ing on the AC SHORE POWER cir cuit
bre aker. If the light is on, a prob lem with a
reversed electrical con nection ex ists.
Disconnect the shore pow er cord imme diately.
Noti fy the mari na and have the dock’s shore
power connec tion in spect ed.
Under proper operating conditions, the reverse
polarity indicator light
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 ma rina shore pow er sys tems may be
im pro perly gro und ed to re tard elec troly sis
(see Sec tion H-13 - Stray Current Corrosion).
Be fore us ing any 120 volt equi p m ent, make
sure the re ve rse po larity 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 pro tects against hazardous electri cal shock
from improper ground. An appliance electri cal cord
with worn insula tion or damp equip ment may have
s tray 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 recep ta cles
on the circuit. A GFCI may be used as a recep tacle as
well as an inter rupter.
