Section 4 - Electrical System
320 Outrage-Owner’s Manual
SHORE POWER:
The shore power system is rated to 120V/30 Amps.
Ship to shore power gives you energy to run all your
boats electrical systems and charges your batteries.
Connection to shore power is made by means of a 50
ft. weather-tight electrical plug that secures to a
screw-on electrical outlet. The shore power outlet is
located below the portside gunwale board, forward
of the under gunwale rodholders. Once the power
cords are connected they are held in place by an outer
ring that secures both connectors in place and pro-
vides a watertight connection. There is an electrical
panel located next to the battery switches on the aft
console bulkhead that shows the status of the shore
power system.
The indicator panel shows:
• Power status
• Reverse polarity
OPERATION:
Make certain the boat is properly moored before
making shore power connection. Connect the female
end of the plug to the boat first, than the dockside
male connection, check the panel for reverse polar-
ity before switching the shore power main/battery
charger switch to the “ON” position. The battery
charger is energized and will charge the batteries
automatically when the shore power main/battery
charger switch is activated.

BATTERY CHARGER:
With the battery charger you will have the ability to
charge your batteries (without engines running) while
connected to shore power ONLY. The system is au-
tomatic and little or no maintenance is required.
The battery charger is located in the console cabin
and can be reached through the starboard storage ac-
cess. The batteries can be charged regardless of the
battery switch settings. Read all applicable informa-
tion regarding the battery charger systems operation
and maintenance.
CAUTION
To minimize shock hazard, follow these instructions:
• Turn off boats shore connection switch before con-
necting the Power cord corset.
• Connect the cordset to the boat inlet first, then to the
shore outlet. Close boat inlet cover tightly to prevent
water intrusion.
• NEVER alter the powercord cordset connectors.
