Electrical Systems
4.1 General
Your Pursuit boat is equipped with DC and
AC electrical systems. The DC system
draws current from onboard batteries. The
AC system can draw current from either
shore power outlets at dockside or the gen-
erator.
Electrical schematics are included in this
manual to assist technicians in the servicing
the electrical systems. Pursuit recommends
you take your boat to an authorized Pursuit
dealer for service or installation of additional
electrical equipment. Pursuit reserves the
right to modify or update the electrical sys-
tem at any time without notice to the con-
sumer or obligation to make updates to
boats built prior to the change.
Some compartments on your boat may be
lighted. Lights bulbs produce heat and can
ignite combustible products. Turn off all light-
ing before you leave the boat.
4.2 DC System
Batteries
The 12-volt batteries have been selected to
provide optimum performance for engine
starting, and house and electronics loads.
There are 7 batteries; 3 Group 27 lead acid
for the engines located in the port cockpit
compartment and 3 Group 31 AGM for
house and electronics located in the star-
board cockpit compartment, and a Group 31
AGM for the bow thruster located under the
forward berth. The AGM batteries are main-
tenance free. A circuit breaker on each
engine protects the engine ignition systems
and gauges. Refer to the engine owner's
manual for information on the circuit break-
ers installed on your engines.
DC Distribution
The 12-volt DC system batteries are
charged by the engine charging system or
the battery charger when connected to
shore power or when operating the genera-
tor. 12-volt power is distributed to the battery
switches and breakers on the Main Distribu-
tion Panel (MDP) (located at the end of the
L-lounge) that protect the switch panels on
the helm and in the cabin. The battery volt-
age for the house and electronics batteries
is monitored using the volt meters on the
MDP. The engine battery voltage is moni-
tored on the respective tachometer.
The circuit breaker on each engine protects
the engine ignition systems and gauges.
Refer to the engine owner's manual for infor-
mation on your engines.

WARNING
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Ignited combustible products can
cause fire or explosion, resulting in
death or serious injury. DO NOT store
combustibles near lights and turn off
all lighting before leaving the boat.
