5.1.4 Shore power

When onshore, you can run your boat’s equipment and charge the batteries with the 110 V or 230 V alternative current (AC) shore power.

The shore power saves you fuel as you do not need to run your engines to charge the batteries.

You can connect your boat from an external power source on shore to the shore power inlet on your boat with the shore power cable.

The shore power panel includes the Reverse polarity indicator, which alerts you if the polarity of the shore power source does not match your boat.

Inspect the electrical system at least twice a year and check the overcurrent protection / residual current device (RCD) every month.
