The stern shore power connectors and the AC main circuit breaker groups for the stern shore power connectors are
located on the transom storage locker on the PORT side. See the illustrations in AC Electrical System on page 41 for
shore power receptacle location.
Never alter shore power cable connectors. Use only compatible cable connectors and shore power receptacles.
NOTE: Remove all perishables from the refrigerator if the yacht is unoccupied for more than 48 hours. The shore
power supply to the refrigerator may be interrupted and food may spoil.
SHORE POWER CONNECTION
WARNING
TO MINIMIZE SHOCK AND FIRE HAZARD:
BEFORE USING THE SHORE POWER CORD, EXAMINE THE CABLE FOR DAMAGE. NEVER USE THE SHORE POWER CORD
IF IT APPEARS CUT OR DAMAGED.
TURN OFF THE BOAT'S SHORE CONNECTION SWITCH BEFORE CONNECTING OR DISCONNECTING THE CORD.
CONNECT THE SHORE POWER CORD TO THE CRAFT'S INLET BEFORE CONNECTING TO THE SHORE POWER SOURCE.
IF THE BOAT IS EQUIPPED WITH A POLARITY INDICATOR THAT ACTIVATES, DISCONNECT THE SHORE POWER CORD AND
CORRECT THE POLARITY.
DISCONNECT THE SHORE POWER CORD AT THE SHORE OUTLET FIRST.
NEVER LEAVE THE SHORE POWER CORD CONNECTED TO THE SHORE OUTLET WHEN THE CORD IS NOT IN USE.
CLOSE THE SHORE POWER INLET COVER TIGHTLY.
IF THE REVERSE POLARITY INDICATOR LIGHT IS ACTIVATED, DO NOT USE THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. CORRECT THE
POLARITY FAULT BEFORE ACTIVATING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ON THE CRAFT.
NEVER ALTER THE PLUG AND CONNECTOR ON THE SHORE POWER CORD.
NOTITE: Always turn off the AC MAIN circuit breaker groups before connecting to the shore power. This prevents arcing
and burning of the shore power cord receptacles. Disconnecting will protect the electrical equipment on board
from rapid ON/OFF current connections, which may occur during the connection process.
1. Switch OFF the WATER HEATER circuit breaker on the AC control center, located in the galley, forward cabinet at
the companionway. Never switch the breaker ON again until the freshwater system has been filled, pressurized and
primed. See AC CONTROL CENTER on page 49 for AC control center location.
