† = If any air conditioning compressor is run, the "Aircon Pump" must be on!
§ = Using the Diesel Furnace to heat water will reduce the likelihood of overloading shore circuits, so it
is recommended that you use it instead of 110-volt shore power (or the generator) when at transient
moorings!
Is it 110 or 120? 220 or 240? The fact is, these voltages are "arbitrary" values! It depends upon
the shore-side utility or boat generator settings, as well as the amount of load on the cable or
generator. In the "real world", it doesn't matter as long as it's at least 105 or 210 volts!
4F4: AC Metering
To the right of the lower helm are the AC Voltage (volts) and current
(Amperes/"Amps") Meters. These show the present voltage and current being used
when the boat is either connected to shore power or using the generator.
