Shore Power/110 Volt Ac System - Bayliner Trophy 1703FS Owner's Manual Supplement

10 CHAPTER 3: COMPONENTS/SYSTEMS

Shore Power/110 Volt AC System

• DO NOT alter shore power connectors and use only compatible connectors.
• Before connecting or disconnecting the shore power cord to your boat, make
sure all breakers and switches on the AC master panel are turned OFF.
• To prevent shock or injury from an accidental dropping of the "hot" cord
into the water, ALWAYS attach the shore power cord to the boat inlet first;
then to the dockside connection. When disconnecting from shore power, dis-
connect the shore power cord from the dockside connection first.
• NEVER leave a shore power cord connected to the dockside connection only.
• Only use shore power cords approved for marine use. NEVER use ordinary
indoor or outdoor extension cords that are not rated for marine use.
SHOCK & ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
• Monitor the polarity indicator lights EVERY TIME you connect to
shore power.
• When connecting to shore power and you encounter a reversed polarity
light (RED colored), DO NOT energize the main breaker switches.
Instead, IMMEDIATELY disconnect the shore power cord (ALWAYS
from the dockside receptacle first) and notify marina management.
SHOCK & ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
• Periodically check the shore power cord(s) for deterioration or damage. Dam-
aged or faulty cords should NEVER be used since the danger of fire and elec-
trical shock exists.
• DO NOT pinch shore power cords in doors or hatches, or coil the shore power
cord too tightly since these situations can generate enough heat to result in
a fire.
• If a shore power cord should accidently become immersed in water, THOR-
OUGHLY dry the blades and contact slots before reusing.
Some dockside installations may be rated less than 30 amps, therefore, you
may need to purchase lower amp adapters. Whenever a lower amp adapter is
used, however, there will be a corresponding drop in supplied power from the
dockside system.
