9.0 ELECTRICAL
9.1 General
The electrical system in your Tartan Yacht has been designed to ensure as much trouble free operation as
possible. Wiring and connections are kept as high in the interior of the yacht as practicable, reducing the
possibility of exposure to water. The main switch panels are located to protect them as much as possible
from the elements. The system in the Tartan 4100 is designed much like your home. All the main circuit
breakers are designed to be left in the on position. The entire panel is shut of at the main battery switch
should you decide to leave your boat for extended periods of time. The breakers at the battery shut off
switch are designed to always be hot. These items include the bilge pumps, memory, courtesy lighting
and inverter control.
9.2 Batteries
Tartan Yachts are factory supplied with batteries. The battery box is located under the aft cabin bunk.
Note: Do NOT turn the main battery switch to "OFF" while the engine is running as serious
damage to the charging system will result. The engine manufacturer recommends that you do not
change batteries with this switch while the engine is running.
Contact your Tartan Dealer for recommended battery sizing.
9.3 Alternator
All engines are equipped with the standard alternator as supplied by the engine manufacturer. However,
you may have an optional HIGH OUTPUT alternator installed. Please consult the product manufacturers
manual for details on operation and care.
9.4
