Connecting to Shore Power
1. Monitor the AC panel’s polarity indicator lights (next to the line 1 and line 2 master breakers) as follows:
•
A GREEN light illuminating after the power cord is plugged into the yacht’s external power receptacle
indicates acceptable electrical power in which you may energize the main breaker switches.
•
A RED light, however, indicates reversed polarity, which could cause electrical system damage and possibly
electrical shock injuries. In this case, DO NOT energize the main breaker switches (see warning below).
2. Activate the AC system by turning the main ship/shore breaker to the “DOCKSIDE” position.
3. Turn ON the master breakers and individual component breakers as required.
Generator Power (Option)
Your yacht may come equipped with an optional gas or diesel generator. Prior to initially operating your generator,
read the generator manual for information on pre-start checks, break-in procedures and detailed operating instruc-
tions and observe the following:
•
Operate the bilge blowers for a minimum of four minutes before starting the generator. Leave the blowers on while
the generator is operating unless the yacht is running at cruising speed.
•
Make sure the generator’s seawater pickup system’s seacock is in the open position before starting your generator
and keep the seacock open throughout generator operation.
•
The generator’s starter switch and breakers are located on the AC electrical panel.
•
Diesel generator: Activate the generator’s preheat switch (located on the AC panel) for approximately one minute
before attempting to start your diesel generator.
•
Gas generator: Simultaneously press the oil pressure button (labeled “PREHEAT”) and turn the starter switch
until the generator starts.
•
Fuel to run the generator is supplied from the starboard fuel tank.
•
In addition to servicing the filters attached to the generator, the fuel filters/separators (located near the fuel shut-off
valve) should be serviced as described in the manufacturer’s manual.
•
The generator runs off the port engine battery.
•
The generator’s coolant mixture consists of equal parts of water and antifreeze (Ethylene Glycol). Coolant (anti-
freeze) levels should be checked at the generator-mounted expansion tank and at the coolant recovery bottle
(located near the generator).
•
Check the generator’s seawater strainer for leaks and clean out debris according to the Seawater Strainer section of
this supplement.
SHOCK & ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
•
Monitor the polarity indicator lights EVERY TIME you connect to shore power.
•
When connecting to shore power and you encounter a reversed polarity light (RED col-
ored), DO NOT energize the main breaker switches. Instead, IMMEDIATELY disconnect
the shore power cord (ALWAYS from the dockside receptacle first) and notify marina
management.
WARN I NG!
!
The voltage on each line can be read by setting the voltmeter selector switch.
NOTI C E
•
Always verify the generator’s seawater pickup system’s seacock is in the OPEN position
prior to starting the generator and whenever the generator is operating.
•
NEVER operate the generator starter for more than 30 seconds. If the generator does not
start, wait at least 30 seconds before another start attempt is made.
•
After starting the generator, wait for the generator to stabilize before activating component
breakers on the AC panel.
