Practical Marine Electrics and Boat Repair Equipment
BOAT BOAT REPAIR EQUIPMENT ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS - NEW TECHNOLOGIES
The electrical boat repair equipment on the average motor boat and cruising yacht is now high technology.
The computer technology age has taken over with many boats now having smart battery chargers, smart alternator regulators, smart battery switches, touchpad electronic switch panels, microprocessor controlled inverters, LED lighting, instrument networks, computers, internet and email. Whether you have a boat for sale, are buying a used boat, adding a boat accessory to your Sunseeker or Bayliner boat, canal or narrow boat, the rules remain the same.
On all boats installing the wiring and the wiring diagram are major topics of interest. The electrical power system required to supply equipment is also a misunderstood subject, and it is the foundation for reliable equipment operations.
It is the source of problems on boat machinery of all types, as well as marine engines such as your electronic controlled Mercury Marine outboard motor, the inboard diesel and gasoline boat motors. I want to change the dangerous illusion that boat and vehicle systems are similar.
As we all know, there are no 24 hour road services offshore, and safety is the prime factor, and this depends on good systems design and installation.
Whether it is in France, England, Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand or the United States, the same system problems are found. Useful electrical and electronics boat repair equipment advice

ALL ABOUT INVERTERS
One really big topic these days is the converson of DC power to AC power. You can of course elect to install a generator, or you can install a power inverter also to do this. Of course you really have to make sure that the DC system is also up to this and so careful consideration of batteries and charging is necessary.
