Rewiring

[ITSME]

I am about to rewire a 10m twin engine fishing boat and wonder if someone more accustom to this sort of work could offer me a few tips. This is a commercial vessel and although employing a qualified marine electrician is not mandatory the work needs to be a good standard.

I am not particularly concerned about the looms provided for the engine instruments which are working OK.

The boat has 2 banks of 2 batteries each and is 24 volt.

I need to understand the purpose & position of an isolation switch, main circuit breakers and auxilliary circuit breakers.

I imagine someone may be aware of a standard wiring diagram I should be able to follow.

Help please.

Suggest you contact Merlin www.power-store.com who will design you a system to meet your needs and supply the parts.

No connection, just satisfied with the system they did for me.
