NOTE
The Distribution Panel includes a 30 amp Ships Power Circuit Breaker as a provision for an
optional Generator installation. Between the 30 amp Shore Power and 30 amp Ships Power
Circuit Breaker is mechanical interlock. This interlock ensures that only one power source is
supplying the Distribution Panel at a time. To energize the panel from two sources would create
serious safety hazards.
To turn ON the Shore Power Circuit Breaker the interlock must be moved UP so that the circuit
breaker handle can be moved to the ON position. This interlock position will also ensure that the
Ships Power Circuit Breaker can not be turned ON.
