CAUTION
The connection must be performed under safety conditions with not
powered connections and by paying attention to carry out a correct
grounding.

WARNING
Before connecting or disconnecting the shore power cord, ensure that
the main shore power circuit breakers are switched off or that the power
selector switch is off. This will help to prevent connector arcing and
damage. The shore power cord is a twist-to-lock fitting. Ensure that this
fitting is properly locked-in place before switching the main shore power
breaker to the on position. This will help to prevent arcing. The shore
power outlet is set to 50 A to protect the shore power supply cord fitting.
Do not exceed a current absorption of 50 A.

DANGER
Before connecting the dock socket, ensure the type of voltage and the
sockets available, their integrity and the absolute absence of moisture
on the wire, on the socket and on the plug.
With plug connected check that wire:
−
cannot get in traction as a result of tide variations, yacht movements,
etc.;
−
cannot get crushed, etc.
a
DANGER
Before carrying out any intervention on the electric system, disconnect
all circuits (dock and generator):
−
disconnect the dock socket;
−
set to OFF the generator circuit breaker.
k
DANGER
The transformers installed on board separate galvanically the dock
electric system from the on board electric system.
During yacht onshore handing (lay-up) for maintenance, if you use one
or both shore plugs for the power supply of the on board 120 / 220 V AC
electric system, make sure that the yacht earthing is connected to the
shore column earthing, taking advantage of expert crew.
S
CAUTION
To minimize shock hazard, unplug the shore power cord and close the
inlet cover tightly. Do not alter the shore power cord connections.
Do not cut or disconnect the green bonding conductor inside of shore
cord or at shore outlet. This conductor is needed to provide the same
bonding potential between the shore ground and your boat’s ground
and minimizes the shock hazard to people on the boat or in the water.
