4F3: AC Panel 120 Volt Breakers
This section of the AC panel provides standard 120-volt
power throughout the vessel. Below are described each
breaker’s circuits and its use.
After connecting to shore power, if the Reverse Polarity Light
lights, it indicates the shore power supply is mis-wired, a
very dangerous condition that could lead to an electrical
shock, and damage the boat’s underwater gear through
electrolysis. Disconnect immediately if this occurs and advise
the marina’s officials at once!
The shore power switches are arranged so that only the
Shore Power “A” bow connector, the Shore Power “B”
Cablemaster system, or the “Ship’s Power” (generator) can
be energized at one time. To operate, slide the selector switch bar in the desired position, then throw the switch. The
upper bar connects to the boat to “A” or “B”, while the lower bar connects the boat to the Generator.
Both “Line 1” & “Line 2” are required for AC operation of the entire AC system

4F4: AC Outlet Ground Fault Interrupters
The AC outlets all have ground fault interrupters for your protection. All AC outlets in the forward part of the vessel are
protected by a GFCI breaker in the head. The AC outlets in the galley and salon are protected by a GFCI breaker to the
starboard side of the helm. There is a third GFCI breaker in the top step compartment in the companionway leading up
to the galley from the forward part of the vessel. This GFCI breaker should be left on at all times.
