AC Multi-Meter
Use the arrow keys to scroll through digital readouts for amperage (A), voltage (V), cycles (hertz) (Hz) and
watts (W).
•
(A) Indicates the total amperage being drawn through the AC MDP. It is the total current level of
all of the AC equipment in operation at the time.
•
(V) Indicates the voltage supplied to the panel. Ideally the voltage should be approximately 240
volts (230 for CE) but never less than 208 volts.
•
(Hz) Indicates cycles which should be 60 (50 for CE).
•
(W) Indicates total watts being consumed as a result voltage x amperage.
AC Main Breakers
The shore power or generator main breaker protects the AC distribution. This breaker is very sensitive. The
resulting power surge that occurs when connecting the dockside cord or starting the generator may cause the
main breaker to trip. To avoid this surge, always turn the selected main breaker to the “OFF” position
before plugging or unplugging the shore power cord or starting or stopping the generator.
The following components are protected by either 120 or 240 Volt 60 Hz breakers for domestic models.
Certain export models use only 220 Volt 50 Hz breakers for all components:
240 Volt Circuits (Domestic Only):
Cabin Air Conditioning:
Supplies electrical current directly to the cabin air conditioner. This breaker will trip if sea water is not being
supplied to the air conditioning unit. If this breaker trips, reset and check for water flow out of the air
conditioning thru-hull. Refer to the air conditioner owner’s manual for additional information.
Helm Air Conditioning:
Supplies electrical current directly to the cabin air conditioner. The thermostat for the helm air is mounted
on the panel adjacent to the breaker. This breaker will trip if sea water is not being supplied to the air
conditioning unit. If this breaker trips, reset and check for water flow out of the air conditioning thru-hull.
Refer to the air conditioner owner’s manual for additional information.
Cockpit Coolers:
Supplies electrical current to the refrigeration unit for the starboard cockpit cooler and aft cockpit cooler.
Individual thermostats are mounted on the panel adjacent to the breaker. This breaker will trip if sea water
is not being supplied to the refrigeration unit. If this breaker trips, reset and check for water flow out of the
thru-hull. Refer to the refrigeration owner’s manual for additional information.
Cooling Pump:
The breaker supplies power to the cooling pump for the air conditioners and cockpit coolers. This breaker
MUST be turned on before operating the air conditioners or refrigeration systems.
House Charger:
The house 40 amp battery charger charges the house, electronics and bow thruster batteries. This breaker
should ALWAYS be on whenever the boat is occupied and either the shore power or generator are operating.
It is automatic and is equipped with an ammeter to monitor charging. See the battery charger manual for more
information.
Engine Charger:
The engine 20 amp battery charger maintains the charge on the engine batteries. It is automatic and is
