4 . 2 . 12 V D.C. SYSTEM
4 . 2 . 1 . Power Supply
Power is supplied to the 12 V D.C. system from two banks of
batteries, an engine bank, and a house bank. Each bank is
comprised of gel cell batteries, each with an 80 amp hour
capacity, connected together to form a bank.
The intent of your 12 V D.C. system design is to provide a source
of the basic needed battery power to operate your vessel safely
while underway, and a second source for convenience and
comfort items. It is expected that the engine bank will provide
that basic operating power, and that the house bank will provide
the convenience and comfort power, as well as power for other
owner installed convenience items and electronics. It is impor-
tant that the engine bank load be carefully determined so as to
never result in a condition where the boat will not be able to be
started, and operated safely in any weather or sea condition.
All owner installed items should be done by your
Fishing Boats dealer, or other authorized
marine electrical service facility. They must also only
be installed to be powered from the house battery
bank.
Battery power is replenished by two sources. The first utilizes
the engine installed alternators. The port engine alternator
charges the engine battery bank. The starboard engine alterna-
tor charges the house bank. This charging takes place whenever
the engines are running.
The second source of battery bank charging comes from the
installed 120 V A.C. battery charger. For this to operate the
boat must be connected to shore power, or have the generator
running and powering the 120 V A.C. panel (see Figure 4-3) in
the cabin (see Section 4.3.2). The battery charger breaker on
the 120 V A.C. panel must also be in the ON position.
It is important that your batteries be kept in a state of full charge
as often as possible. Fully charged batteries will indicate a voltage
