Electrical System
240v AC System
Power is supplied either by shore power, or from one of the 28KW Mitsubishi Gensets on board, to the main AC panel located in the engine room.
AC power is then distributed through 4 secondary panels located in: 1) Engine room,
2) Guest accommodation area, 3) Deckstore, 4) Navigation room.
Electrical problems can thus be localized and fixed without having to shut down the whole supply system. Furthermore, each cabin has a dedicated fuse box which enables to narrow down further potential problems.

8 x 120 amp hour 12v batteries provide as house batteries a total of 480 Amp Hours in 24 volts. The batteries are charged by the engine or the 28KW Mitsubishi Genset driven alternators as well as with a 20 amp battery charger.
The 24v DC system is equipped with vapor proof battery selector switches. The main 24v DC electrical panel is located in the chart room area and a 24v DC is supplied for navigation instruments, navigation lights and bilge pumps. All wiring is DC cable and new within the last 4 years.
