Blue Sea 8361 AC Rotary Panel 240VAC/63A OFF + 3

1. Disconnect all AC and DC power Disconnect all AC power originating on or off the vessel. This includes inverters, generators, shore power attachments and any other device capable of supplying AC power to the ship?s circuits. Disconnect the main positive DC cable from all batteries to eliminate the possibility of a short circuit and to disable the inverter while installing the switch. 2. Select mounting location and cut opening Select a mounting location which is protected from water on the front and back of the switch and is not in an area where fl ammable vapors from propane, gas or lead acid batteries accumulate. AC rotary switches are not ignition protected and may ignite such vapors. Using the panel template provided, make a cut out in the mounting surface where the distribution panel is to be mounted. Do not yet fasten the panel to the mounting surface. 3. Install source 1, source 2, source 3, and output wires Install the feed wires from AC Shore Power and AC Generator. Install the output wires. Refer to the wire sizing chart to select the minimum wire size. Connect the black AC hot, white AC neutral and green AC safety ground as shown in the illustration. To avoid excess wire temperatures when cooling may be limited, we recommend using at least 12 gauge wire for 30A and 8 gauge wire for 50A. Do not confuse the neutral current carrying wires (sometimes called ground) with the green normally non-current carrying wires (sometimes called grounding). These two wires must be connected only at the source of power, nowhere else. An appropriate circuit breakers must be installed within 10 feet of the shore power inlet, ahead of this switch. The measurement is made along the conductors.
