Via the battery , or via any DC equipment switched on at the time, to the negative and then to earth via the bonding and /or any adventitious paths, such as engine, stern gear and water, when they exist
Wouldn't that cause catastrophic damage to the DC equipment and/ro battery with the possibility of explosion or fire.
If that is a possibility I for one would not even contemplate that connection and the ISO would be guilty of creating a potential dangerous installation. I would also hold the surveyor and insurance company totally responsible to any result.
Vic any Idea what the ISO or other standards say about separate mains/DC wire runs and the insulation of any equipment connected to mains and DC circuits.
I think that anyone who is adamant that the DC neutral and mains be connected should connect 240 VAC mains across a 12DC battery and report the results an the forum.
