ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT, 110-220 V
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Certain vessels are equipped (as either standard or optional features depending on the
model)with a 110 V or 220 V circuit.
The following measures are recommended in order to avoid the danger of electrical shock and
fire:
- Never work on a live electric fitting.
- Plug in the boat/shore supply cable in the boat before you plug it into the shore supply
socket.
- Never let the end of the boat/shore supply cable hang in the water.
- Turn off the shore supply with the onboard cut-off switch before connecting or
disconnecting the vessel/shore supply line.
- Disconnect the ship/shore power cable at the shore socket first.
- Check the polarity indicator for the shore connections (110V AC version).
- If the reverse polarity indicator is activated immediately disconnect the cable. Rectify the
polarity fault before using the vessel's electrical installation.
- Close the shore supply input cover firmly after use.
- Do not modify the vessel/shore supply line connections; only use compatible connections.
- Do not alter the vessel's electrical system. The installation, modifications and maintenance
must be carried out by a qualified marine electricity technician. Check the system at least
twice a year.
- Disconnect the vessel supply when the system is not being used. This is to prevent the
danger of fire.
- Use double insulated or earthed appliances.
Note that the live wires are brown, the neutral ones are blue and the earth wires are green and
yellow.
- Never let the end of the boat/shore supply cable hang in the water: The
result may be an electric field liable to hurt or kill the swimmers nearby.
- There may be danger of electrocution if alternating current systems are
incorrectly used.
- Never modify an electric fitting and relevant diagrams yourself.
- Call in a technician skilled in marine electricity to carry out any electric modification.
- Never change the breaking capacity (amperage) of the overcurrent safety devices.
- Never install or replace the electric appliances (or any electric equipement) by
components exceeding the capacity (amperage) of the circuit.
