Pretty much every boat in the cruiser or larger category are serviced by both AC (Alternating Current) and DC (Direct Current) electrical supplies. The AC side of the equation comes from plugging into shore power electrical connections, usually at a dock or one's home port slip. DC power is supplied by the on-board batteries, commonly referred to as the 'house batteries'.
As different systems are powered by these two exclusive supplies, it it crucial to become familiar with what electrical source is being used for which elements. In this video we will look at how our boat uses the AC/Shore Power side of the panel to to feed the water heater, air conditioning, fridges, microwave, stove and the receptacle outlets. The DC/Batteries side will feed the fresh water pump, Vacuflush toilet pump, cabin lights, stereo, exhaust fans, accessories, DC fridge supply and the engine starters.
