The main switches allow the batteries to be disconnected from all devices that consume electricity. When the main switches are in the On position, the current is conducted to the distribution board and from there to different parts of the boat. Devices that constantly need current are active regardless of the position of the main switches.
When the main switches are active, the text On is visible and a led above the text is illuminated.
The design drawing of the boat’s electrical system is presented in appendix Electrical diagrams. The location of the main switches is presented in the section Electric system.
The main switches of the boat are located in the driver's seat base. Power supply to the engines and devices is enabled by pulling the Start or Service switch to the lower position and pressing the On button. There is one main switch for engines and one switch for the service batteries. The optional bow thruster or windlass has a separate remote switch. The boat’s main switch panel is located on the lower part of the steering console.
The manually operated main switches are located under the aft deck, behind hatches. These switches are only for emergency use and normally, these switches are in Auto-mode. In normal situations, use the switches in the steering console.
Current is fed to the engine by turning the Start switch to the On position. The current feed to other equipment is achieved by turning the Service switch to the On position, and feed to the bow thruster and windlasses is achieved by turning the Aux switch to the On position.
The advanced main switch is containing main switches for both engine batteries and house battery bank. Normally the switches should be in Auto-mode which enables remote operation from the helm. The main switch is also providing data to the MFDS about battery voltage and state of charge. If there is disturbance in the remote operation, the main switch can be accessed by removing the battery box covers, main switches can then be manually operated. The main switch also contains an emergency parallel function.
