INSTALLATION COMPLETION TESTING

1. Apply labels for main and branch circuits—additional labels are available
at www.bluesea.com.
2. Fasten panel to the mounting surface.

Test the Panel:
1. Use a multimeter to verify continuity before power is applied.
This procedure takes a little time, but is recommended, especially if
some elements of a previous installation might not have been properly
labeled, or followed the expected color codes.
2. Reconnect all AC and DC power.
3. Turn the main switch ON.
4. If there are meters, check DC voltage and current measurements with
the DC meter; check AC voltage, current, power, and frequency
with AC meter.
5. Turn on each branch circuit to verify power to each circuit.

Shore Power Cable Connection:
1. Connect the vessel’s shore 1, shore 2, and genset power and verify that
a Reverse Polarity light is not illuminated.
2. If the red Reverse Polarity light is on, then either the hot and ground or
the hot and neutral wires have been crossed. If there is an error,
starting at the panel, trace the connection back as far as necessary to
locate the error.

Source Selection Rotary Switch:
It is very important that the wiring be connected according to the panel
wiring schematic. The panel wiring schematic is on the panel product page
at www.bluesea.com. The line and neutral from each source must be paired
together and not connected such that the switch selects line from one
source and neutral from another. Verify the connections and see that each
connection is securely tightened, including terminals on the switch where no
wires are attached.

Selector switches may fail if there is dust between the contacts. Blow out
the switch using a high-pressure air source.
