Electrical System
Cabin AC Circuit Breaker Panel
The voltage should be checked each time the AC
system is activated. The AC system and acces-
sories can be damaged by voltage that is below
105 volts or above 125 volts. You should monitor
the voltage and never operate your AC electrical
system if the voltage is below or above this range.
The amp or current load should be monitored
particularly when operating the air conditioners
and water heater. You should always be aware of
the electrical load needed to activate accessories
and manage the amperage being supplied so the
load can be kept within safe limits. Avoid exces-
sive current load that can overload the circuits or
the generator. If you have any questions about
managing the power in your boat, contact your
authorized Everglades dealer.
The frequency should be monitored when the
generator is operating. In the U.S., AC acces-
sories are designed to operate on a frequency of
60 cycles per second. The generator should be
able to maintain this frequency or - 3
cycles. Do not operate the AC electrical system
if the frequency is not in the proper range.
Refer to the volt meter owner’s manual for more
information on the features and operation of the
AC Multimeter.
Shore Main and Generator Main Breakers
These breakers select the power source and pro-
tect the general distribution network. There is a
main breaker for the shore circuit and the genera-
tor. A sliding safety cover on the main breakers
prevent activating circuits for the generator and
shore circuit simultaneously. These breakers are
very sensitive. The resulting power surge that
occurs when connecting the dockside cord may
cause the main breaker to trip. To avoid this
surge, always turn the Shore Power main breaker
to the “OFF” position before plugging or unplug -
ging the shore power cord and the Generator Main
breaker to the “OFF” position when starting the
generator.
Care must be taken when operating the AC system
from the generator or the shore power supply line.
On some boats it may be possible to overload
the generator or shore power circuit if too many
AC accessory breakers are activated. Too much
