Also, if you're just converting the iron to 24v at this time, You don't need a panel. You just bridge through your existing disconnect battery...
Well, the starter and alternators can come from a source like DieselPro, shipped to you for around $1500 per engine. You can do better if you...
....if you find you are ready to convert the house DC panel, you simply feed the panel with the 24v rather than the 32v...the breakers don't care....
BTW, all of your wiring for systems outside the ER is run through common chases outboard of your rear guest staterooms. You'll find AC and DC...
List anything that "must" remain 32v. Consider replacement of any vintage 32v with new 24v. Use a temp DC panel to handle the conversion,...
We installed both a refrigerator and a freezer in the transom fish boxes of our 1964 65 Sparkman version. It was a really nice feature if the...
Your battery project...this might be a good time to transition to 24v from 32v. You can swap the starters, alternators, and shut down switches on...

Lol, we just had a similar conversation aboard...a house needs a breaker reset. A boat needs an engineer.
Those narrow canals....bump her in and out of gear. Try to drift forward more than you push her. The prop wash will pull the moored boats to...
Congrats. Great find!
But it would seem that the wrong frequency might booger up the transistors within the appliance, no?
What Atlas sells is a unit that is modified on demand by the Atlas system given variations in voltage conditions on incoming line voltage. The...
To each his or her own. A poorly functioning electronic control is going to give you fits beyond your present recognition of frustration. Best...
Pascal is right. Rebuild it properly in Sched 80 PVC. Boats don't like metals, especially mixing metals. Build it in Sched 80, oversized, and...
I would always choose a mechanical setup over flying by wire. What’s driving the considered change ??
Carrying this one step further, put that boat into cooler waters, and place a charter aboard. The boat needs to meet the whims and wants of every...
Aluminum conducts water temp quite well on a vessel, as you’ve stated. R value in comparison to a home is an absurd comparison when considered....
HVAC, just the chiller system alone (and related air handlers) will consume 30 amps per 5 ton. Cooking, the galley with the refrigeration all in...
Generators (and mains) often have PTO’s on them to network hydraulic systems used for stabilization and maneuvering as well as anchoring and...
