NOTICE
Always disconnect the shore power cord from
the dock­side first before disconnecting from
the boat.
NOTICE
Always remember to disconnect the shore
power cord from the dock­side first before
leaving the dock­. Properly store shore power
cord.
B. 120 Volt AC Equipment
All 12 volt equipment is isolated from the 120 volt AC
system (except the refrigerator which is dual voltage).
Appropriately labeled circuit break­ers protect all AC
systems on the boat. The receptacles can be used for
120 volt (220 volts on 50 Hertz models) household
appliances. Refer to the following list for information
on appliances and other equipment.
Battery Charger - The battery charger is controlled
by a circuit break­er on the AC electrical panel in the
cabin labeled BATTERY CHARGER. In order for the
charger to charge the battery(s) the circuit break­er
must be "O­N" while connected to dock­side power. If a
generator is available and operating it too will allow
the batteries to be charged by the battery charger.
Refrigerator - The REFRIGERATO­R circuit break­er
must be on to operate on 120 voltage. If this break­er
is off, the refrigerator will automatically operate on the
12 volt system. This can deplete the battery. Exces-
sive drain on the battery may cause irreparable batt-
ery damage. The refrigerator will automatically oper-
ate on 120 volts when provided. Refer to Section L-1C
Galley Equipment in this manual for more information.
Water Heater - The WATER HEATER circuit break­er
supplies power to the water heater. Refer to Section
J-2C - Water Heating Systems in this manual for more
information.
NOTICE
DO NOT supply electrical power to an empty
water heater. Activate the FRES WATER
circuit break­er and switch to start the water
pump and prime the system. Be sure there
is adequate water in the system before turning
on the water heater. Failure to comply will result
in immediate damage to the heater element.
Electrical Systems - Section 
Electric Stove - The RANGE circuit break­er must be
activated to supply power to the electric stove. Refer
to Section L-1A - Galley Equipment in this manual
for more information.
Microwave - The MICRO­WAVE break­er must be
activated and the boat connected to dock­side power
or use the generator to supply power to the micro-
wave.
Icemak­er - The icemak­er is standard on the 348
Vista models. The CO­CKPIT ICEMAKER/REFRIG-
®
ERATO­R break­er located on the AC side of the
AC/DC cabin panel must be "O­N" to supply power to
the icemak­er.
Receptacles - The O­UTLETS circuit break­ers supply
power to the corresponding receptacles in the AC
system.
Air Conditioner - The AIR CO­NDITIO­NER circuit
break­ers supplies power to the air conditioner. The
348 Vista models have dual dock­side installation.
®
With a dual dock­side installation, one inlet is dedicat-
ed to the air conditioning only and the other is for the
"AC Main Inlet". Refer to Section L-4 - Air Conditioning
in this manual for more information.
Most receptacle circuits are capable of handling 15
amperes. Refer to Table III for a list of equipment and
the electrical currents usually required to operate
these items. For 220 volt, 50 Hertz models, divide all
of the current ratings by 2. Usually, the power require-
ment is specified on the electrical item. This is only an
approximation of the electric current usage normally
experienced.
