SYSTEM OPERATIONS-22
• Disconnect the shore power cord from
the dockside outlet.
• Disconnect the shore power cord from
the yacht’s inlet recepticle.
• Store your shore power cable in a safe,
dry location.
You should periodically check the shore
power cord for the following:
• Cuts, cracks, or severe abrasions on
the yellow cord covering.
• Bent broken or loose plug blades.
• Plug blades or connector slots that
show signs of overheating or arcing, such
as,
Brown or black discoloration
on insulation around blades or
slots.
Discoloration and/or erosion of
blade material.
• Do not allow cords to be pinched by a
closed door or hatch. Pinch points cre-
ate resistance and generate heat that can
cause a fi re.
• Spray all contacts monthly with an
electrical contact cleaner, corrosion inhibi-
tor and lubricant, such as LPS-1 made by
Holt Lloyd Corporation (Please note that
WD-40 or silicone spays are NOT appro-
priate because the fi lm they leave increas-
es contact resistance. The proper spray
types can be found at electrical supply
houses or stores such as Radio Shack).
• If a shore power cord should become
immersed with water, it should be imme-
•
•
diately sprayed with fresh water, THOR-
OUGHLY dried, and blades and contact
slots sprayed with a moisture displace-
ment before re-using.
