Both the AC and DC systems must be grounded in order to function properly. The 36 RH Corsair uses a
cathode bond system to connect all underwater components and through-hull fittings. A sacrificial zinc
plate is mounted on the centerline of the transom and helps protect these fittings from corrosion. This
plate should be inspected and replaced at regular maintenance intervals to ensure corrosion protection.
