Electrical Panels

AC panel: I took these photos to redefine the wiring labels based on upcoming changes.


Input power no longer needs polarity sensing since the isolation transformers were installed. This has been required to disable that function.

DC panels:

Cross connect Switch on the left, DC lighting panel on right.  I plan to chance the Aft, Main, and forward lights to control sub panels in this locations.  

This biggest change to the panels willbe the number of wires going to them will be dramatically reduced.  Only hot leads will be terminated here and the ground bus will be used for panel lights.  Wago terminals on a DIN Rail will be used for the ground terminations. I am not sure how those work for the AC neutral connections.  

Temporary Ladderr

I started building a temporary companionway ladder, but my battery charger seems to have died and taken with it 3 or 4 batteries.  


I used the old aft upper bunks to enclose the platform and railing to provide some protection for the dog-/so she won't fall off.
