Bavaria 42 AC/DC panels

[eddystone]

Trying to get familiar with this on newly acquired boat. It’s a 418 panel and worked out most of the symbols on the DC switches but not all. I’m assuming 13 is the shower inside and 14 is transom shower. 15 haven’t a clue. There is only 1 switch for masthead light so can’t separate anchor light from tricolour?
The AC supply becomes live when plugged without turning on red switch - what is this? Has a symbol likes stick immersed in horizontal lines.
Finally where are main battery switches?

Can you post a picture? Impossible to guess.

The switch on the AC panel is the immersion heater circuit. There is also a switched plug under the aft bunk to the calorifier. there are effectively no battery master switches, just an isolator in the negative under the chart table. If the charging is still standard then you may want to change the splitter for something better. I replaced mine with a BEP Marine switch cluster including a VSR located to the left of the chart table on the lower bulkhead as the batteries are the other side, making all connections short and easy. Of course there are other ways of doing it to improve charge control and have separate isolators.

Don't recall the transom shower having an switch on the panel and I think 14 might be the shower drain pump. Only way to find out, as with the lights is to turn them on and off and see what works/ does not. Worth checking the wiring connections for the mast under the panel in the headlining as the original is just choc blocs and prone dampness and rust!

It’s the shower pump out (probably with a momentary switch near sink)

and 14 is transom shower.

No - there is no sump pump at transom. The showers themselves are fed from the water tank (12). Switch 14 is for an electric toilet if installed.

15 haven’t a clue.

Do you have a tricolour? Normally white at top and Port/Starboard/Stern are on the pull/pushpit on switch 3

Finally where are main battery switches?

Assuming as originally installed and similar to other Bavs a black isolator which is in the NEGATIVE and is under the chart table.

Some tricolor/anchor led lights cycle on/off/on/off/on to control which illuminates

Thanks for assistance. Will get back to deciphering this after yesterday’s drama of prop falling off by the Skerries.
