4.3 DC Distribution System
The battery switches are part of an integrated DC power distribution system that contains several components.
This panel is made up of battery switches and the 12-volt power distribution breakers. Access to the battery
switch panel is through a hatch located on the aft side of the cockpit entertainment center. Your boat may
be equipped with some or all of the following components.
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION:
Battery Switch (2): These switches feed the engine(s) and DC circuits. These are "ON/OFF" switches. Turn
the switch so that the green "ON" indicator is displayed. Both switches should be in the "ON" position
whenever the boat is in operation.
Parallel Switch: Connects the batteries together for engine starting or charging of all batteries.
Voltage Sensitive Relay (VSR): The VSR allows two batteries to be charged either by one engine or by
the on-board battery charger. The VSR prevents both batteries from being discharged by automatically
isolating the engine battery.
24-Hour Essential Circuits: Used for protection of circuits that are not switched off by battery
switches.
Medium Duty Circuit Breaker: Used to protect high amperage circuits and panel feeds.
Heavy Duty Circuit Breaker: Used to protect the windlass circuit.
Heavy Duty Distribution Stud: One or more of these may be used to distribute negative DC power.
Heavy Duty Buss: Contains multiple distribution studs to distribute negative DC power.
Blank Module: Acts as a filler to complete the modular design.
