CABLES WHILE WASHING DOWN DECKS.
TO REDUCE THE POSSIBILITY OF AN ELECTRICAL SHOCK, IT IS IMPOR-
TANT THAT THE 110-VOLT AC GROUND SYSTEM IS FUNCTIONING PROP-
ERLY AND THAT A PROPER CONNECTION EXISTS BETWEEN THE SHORE
POWER CORD AND THE SHORE POWER INLET AND THE OUTLET GROUND
CIRCUITS. IF THERE IS ANY DOUBT ABOUT THE INTEGRITY OF THE
GROUND CIRCUIT, A QUALIFIED MARINE ELECTRICIAN
SHOULD BE CONTACTED IMMEDIATELY AND THE 110-
VOLT AC SHOULD BE DISCONNECTED UNTIL THE NEC-
ESSARY REPAIRS ARE COMPLETED.
Recommended procedure for making a shore connection
Turn the AC main breaker to the “OFF” position. If the
dockside outlet includes a disconnect switch, turn it to the
“OFF” position also.
To avoid strain on the cable make sure it has more slack than
the mooring lines. Dress the cable so that it cannot be
damaged by chafing between the boat and the dock. Make
sure the cable does not come in contact with the water. Then
connect the cable in the boat plug inlet and the dockside
outlet, making sure the connection plug includes a three-prong plug with a ground wire.
Tighten the lock rings on both the shore and the boat connector plugs.
Turn the dock side disconnect switch or circuit breaker to the “ON” position and check for
proper polarity. If reverse polarity has been achieved, the red polarity indicator in the 110-
volt panel will light. If this should happen, make sure the main breaker on the panel is in the
“OFF” position and turn the dock power switch or breaker off. A special relay attached to the
main breaker should automatically turn the main breaker off whenever reverse polarity is
achieved. Notify a qualified electrician to check the wiring at the dock outlet.
If the red polarity light does not illuminate when power is supplied to the panel,
the polarity is correct and the AC main switch can be moved to the “ON”
position.
DO NOT OPERATE THE AC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FROM SHORE POWER
WITH REVERSE POLARITY. REVERSE POLARITY WILL DAMAGE THE SYS-
TEM AND EXPOSE PASSENGERS TO ELECTROCUTION HAZARDS. THIS
CONDITION COULD ALSO CAUSE A FIRE IN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.
