3.2.1 Shore Power
You can use a shore power source to supply AC power to your boat’s AC
electrical system. To do this, you will need one shore power cord for each
Line circuit in use on your boat. Line 1 corresponds to Shore #1 on the
AC Control Center; Line 2 corresponds to Shore #2.
NOTE:
If you leave your boat for more than 48 hours while your boat is
connected to shore power, remove all perishables from your refrigerator.
If the shore power supply to your boat is interrupted, your food may spoil.
To connect to shore power:
1. Make sure the generator is not running. If you start the generator
while your boat is connected to shore power, the AC electrical sys-
tem will automatically connect itself to the generator and disconnect
itself from shore power.
Do not supply power to the water heater when it is empty. Doing so may
damage the unit’s heating element.
2. On the AC Control Center, located in a cabinet above the stairway to
the stateroom level, switch the Water Heater
circuit breaker “OFF.”
Do not switch the breaker on again until the fresh water system has
been filled, pressurized and primed.
3. On the AC Control Center, switch the Shore #1 and Shore #2 Main
circuit breakers “OFF.”
4. Switch the AC Main circuit breaker groups “OFF.” These breaker
groups are located in the cockpit transom locker.
Make sure the shore power cord(s) you use is in excellent condition with
no cuts, nicks or abrasions in the exterior plastic cover. Also make sure
that the cord(s) is specifically designed to connect your boat to a shore
power source. Using a damaged cord or a cord that is not designed for
this purpose can cause electrical shock resulting in death or serious
injury.
5. Locate your 50' shore power cord(s).
