4. Charging
Keeping your house batteries charged is essential to ensuring your 12volt systems will work.
Fridges, lights, fans, stereos, and Navigation instruments are some of the most important ones
and of course using them draws power from your house batteries. If you conserve energy, you
will not need to charge as often. If something is not being used, then turn it off. We often
explain that 12-volt power is like water; you need to replace what you use. You can recharge
your batteries with the auxiliary engine(s) or your 110-volt battery charger when running the
generator or on shore power.
Engines:
Motoring to a destination will automatically charge your batteries. When anchored or moored
you can run your engine(s) in neutral at 1400 RPMs to charge your batteries.
If your batteries get to 12.2 volts, then it is time to recharge your batteries. At 12.2 volts it
should take about 1.5 hours of charging to get them back to a good charge. It is important that
you recharge the batteries completely every day. This may take 2 or 3 charges per day. But you
can break this up into more charges for shorter periods of time. Once you think you have
charged enough or you just want to go for a sail, turn off the charging system. Wait about 15
minutes and then check the voltage of your house battery. A fully charged battery should come
to rest around 12.8 volts. If the batteries do not get to this level, then they need more charging.
Please note that you will see elevated voltage readings when charging and just after charging.
The latter is why you should wait 15 minutes before checking your voltage after charging.
Hold button and move shifter
to disengage transmission.
Charging with shore power and generator:
Using the 110volt charger via generator or shore power will charge your batteries; Just check
that the battery charger is turned on as this is not completely automatic. And check that you see
your house battery has an elevated charge level, 13 volts or more whilst charging.
There are two selector switches in the port aft cabin generator locker should stay in the auto
position (You can select shore or generator using the touch display at the nav desk). In the case
of a system failure, the switches can be operated manually. Call the manager on duty if there
is a system failure. On shore power you have air conditioning, 110v power to your outlets and
you are charging your batteries.

Battery Charger Breakers
Generator not charging batteries:
Check battery charger breakers are in the on position.
Check transfer switches. Ensure selector switches are turned to generator and not shore
power.
Check the main breaker on the left side of the generator. When this breaker is off the
generator will run but there is no power going to the chargers and air conditioning units.
Not Receiving Power from Shore:
1. Check selector switches are set to shore power and not generator.
2. Check the cable is plugged in all the way, you should be able to twist the cable clockwise
on both ends.
3. If you are still not receiving power from shore move the shore cable to another pedestal
and ensure the breakers on the pedestal are in the on position.
