Three phase fives me a headache everytime I think about it. I know we were pulling from both cables because the meters on the cord selector...
N and G should never be bonded on the boat except at the generator and at the inverter when in use. This is why it s critical to use a marine...
Having an isolation Transformer is really nice and honestly I m surprised you have one on this boat. Have you actually seen them? I hope your...
I would not put a 50 amp connector on a 30 amp cord. Keep the pigtail, just replace the 30 amp plugs. You don’t need special splicing kits,...
Myers it all shuts down when one breaker trips on the dock. As long as both cords are 3 phases or single phase, the system will do its thing....
I looked at my notes, the 480 has three hots and a ground. No neutral. I have 480v between any two hot and 270v between the arch hit and ground...
yeah, that’s what i m wondering. With both 3 phase cords active, I have 214 v coming in the Atlas with 0 load as we re on gen.
We have two power cords, both originally with 5 pins 208 connectors. When we brought the boat to our home slip, I replaced one of the connectors...
So two 208s should provide more amps than a single 480? Isn’t 480 three phase? our gens at 45kw and never trip (never had to run both) so...
When connecting to a 50Amp with a splitter to twin 30s, the pedestal breaker isn’t going to trip but if you pull more than 30amps on each cord,...
It was really rough up to about 15 years ago when authorities started cracking down. The even started bringing a barge with shades to keep both...
I had the technician from Atlas on board last year to check the system and maintain what had been ignored for years incl replacing a number of...
well at least with a Glend you don’t have to worry about issues on the boat end since it s hard wired. You may want to pull out the cords all the...
I ve moved to Miami (from st Barths) back in 93. Shipped my little 25 footer over. It was fun. Nowadays, you can’t even get into marine stadium...
“Fairly cool at night”!?? What are you smoking? :) I can’t believe a boat that size would have twin 30amp shore power… ridiculous. Should be...
Yeah I am aware of possible burned outlets and aging breakers. I m staying on gen tonight, not getting up every two hours to reset the breakers...
Background. Lazzara 116 with 2005 vintage Atlas ShorPower system. Whatever you throw at it… single or three phase, 208,240,480, 50 or 60hz, it...
And with an overflow bottle, you can check coolant level underway with a quick glance. It’s a no brainer.
actually I did that when I repowered my old 53. 12 volts engines and 24 bolts house system. Works very well. I have a single 8D for each engine...
In all fairness unless you can pin these issues to poor installations, they have nothing to do with the boat manufacturer. that said, warranty...
