WARNING!
This system has been designed and approved for installation by those
who has read and follow the instruction in this installation guide. A qualified
electrician is not required for installing the system. For this reason it is prohibited
to make any adjustments or modifications to the component parts of the system.
Changes could mean life threatening consequences to people in and around the
boat.
WARNING!
This system must not be used without proper installation of the
electrical cabinet according to attached installation instruction.
WARNING!
The power feed from the shore may not be connected to the boat
before the entire system has been installed in the boat. Connecting the power
from an outside source otherwise risks exposing people in and around the boat to
life threatening hazards.
WARNING!
The shore power system’s protective earth must be electrically
connected with all the electrically conductive devices in the boat that have a
connection to earth, for example, via the water. Failure to do this will result in
immediate mortal danger to people in or around the boat in the event of a fault
to the electrical equipment connected to the shore power system.
WARNING!
In order for the system to be able to provide protection against
personal injury in the event of a fault in one of the electrical devices connected to
the system, the system’s electrical cabinet must be a part of the installation.
WARNING!
The electrical cabinet on shore, that the shore power cable is connected
to, should be regarded as a part of the installation. This is because the shore
power system’s protective earth must be able to provide protection against
personal injury in the event of a fault in any part of the system
.
WARNING!
Mains plugs are not the same in all countries and may have a different
earth. If the electrical system is connected to the land power supply through an
adapter cable then it must be carried out in accordance with the national heavy
current regulations.
