INSTALLATION
Panel Wiring Schematic—A panel wiring schematic is available on the panel
product page at www.bluesea.com. To locate the schematic,
SEARCH by
part number (four digit number found on the back of the panel), click the
PRODUCT DOCUMENTS tab, under INSTALLATION , click “Wiring Schematic”.
1. Disconnect all AC and DC power. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
disconnect all AC and DC power during installation. This includes inverters,
generators, shore power attachments, and any other device capable of
supplying AC or DC power to the ship’s circuits.
2. Select mounting location and cut opening. Select a convenient location
to mount the panel. When choosing a location, refer to the Cautions on
page 2. Also, choose a location that is protected from spray. Cut an opening
for the panel using the enclosed full size cutout template, or use the cutout
dimensions provided in the table on page 3.
3. Verify circuit breaker ratings. Verify that each branch circuit breaker
installed is the correct rating for the circuit. The circuit breaker must have a
rating less than the allowable amperage of the wire, yet greater than the
circuit’s continuous current. Replace pre-installed circuit breakers if necessary.

will guide you in suitable circuit protection selection.
4. Mount External Busbars, supplied with all 360 Panels, near the panel:
• AC panels—DualBus busbar ( s ) to connect AC neutral and safety ground.
