5.1 Electrical system

The electrical system of your boat consists of a state-of-the-art power package which covers your power needs onshore and offshore.

Risk of electric shock, fire or explosion.

Remember that water and electricity are a bad combination.

Let only a competent marine electrical technician carry out any installation, alteration or maintenance work to the electrical system.

Risk of death, electric shock or injury.

Working on the electrical installation while the system is energized can cause an electric shock.

Never work on the electrical installation while the system is energized.

Risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment.

Never alter or modify the rated current amperage of overcurrent protective devices.

The power package is a combination of batteries, shore power and the components of the generator replacement system. The NMEA network connects the different components of your power package. You can monitor the operation of the power package with the CZone application on the chartplotter.

The less you use the electrical equipment on your boat, the longer the system can give you power.

Check here the different components of the electrical system.
