OS 325
Outlets
Supplies AC to the cabin electrical 120-volt
outlets. AC electrical outlets are provided
with ground fault interrupters (GFI) to help
protect against electric shock. Test outlets
periodically by pressing the test/reset but-
tons in the center of the face plate to ensure
proper operation. GFI outlets do not protect
against short circuits and overloads. This
protection is done by the outlet breakers on
the AC panel.
GFI outlets do not provide 100% protection
from electric shock. Even though GFI outlets
protect by reducing exposure time from line
to ground shock hazards, it is still possible to
receive an electric shock from defective
appliances, power tools or misused electri-
cal equipment.
Entertainment
Supplies AC to a 110 v. outlet located behind
the TV cabinet. This can be used for any 110
v. components installed after production.
Power Management
Several of the components on your boat
draw a considerable amount of amperage
when in use. Pursuit has grouped these high
demand circuit breakers which enables you
to easily choose which components to
access at the same time. By sliding the
breaker switch cover over the circuits not
required it frees the other circuits to be used.
4.6 Battery Charger Operation
The battery charger charges and maintains
the 12-volt batteries simultaneously when
activated. It is automatic and is equipped
with an ammeter to monitor charging. Refer
to the battery charger manual for more infor-
mation.
At dockside, when the boat is connected to
shore power, the battery charger maintains
the charge on the house and engine batter-
ies. When operating on the optional genera-
tor, the on-board battery charger must be
"ON" to maintain charge of the house bat-
tery. The generator charging system does
not generate enough current to keep up with
the electrical demand on the house battery.
The wires that supply DC charging current to
the batteries are protected by an internal
fuse in the battery charger and three circuit
breakers, one for each battery bank output
wire. The breakers protect the DC charging
circuit from the batteries to the charger. They
are located on the DC distribution panel.
Push to reset the breakers. The internal
fuses in the charger protect the DC charging
circuit from the charger to the batteries.
4.7 Shore Power Connection
Connecting Shore Power
If you suspect the shore power connection
system is faulty or damaged, have a quali-
fied marine electrician check the system.
Turn the AC main breaker to "OFF" position.
If the dockside outlet includes a disconnect
switch, turn it to "OFF."
To avoid strain on the cable make sure it has
more slack than the mooring lines. Protect
the cable so it cannot be damaged by chaf-
ing between the boat and the dock. Keep the
cable from making contact with the water.
Then connect the cable to the boat connec-
tion plug and the dockside outlet. Make sure
the dockside connection plug includes a
three-prong plug with a ground wire. Tighten
the lock rings on both the shore and the boat
connector plugs. Turn the dockside discon-
!
DANGER
ELECTROCUTION HAZARD
Exposure to high voltage will cause
death or serious injury. DO NOT
attempt to correct wiring yourself. DO
NOT swim in marinas or near boats
connected to shore power. Keep chil-
dren away from any electrical cables
or equipment and use grounded appli-
ances onboard only.
