WARNING

@ It is not possible within the scope of these instructions to fully acquaint

the installer with all the knowledge of electrical systems that may be

necessary to correctly install this product. If the installer is not

knowledgeable in electrical systems we recommend that an electrical

professional be retained to make the installation.

@If either the panel front or back is to be exposed to water it must be

protected with a waterproof shield.

@The panels must not be installed in explosive environments such as

gas engine rooms or battery compartments as the circuit breakers are

not ignition proof.

@The main positive connection must be disconnected at the battery post

to avoid the possibility of a short circuit during the installation of this

distribution panel.

Guarantee

Any Blue Sea Systems product with which a customer is not satisﬁ ed

may be returned for a refund or replacement at any time.

Installation

1. Disconnect all AC and DC power

Before starting, disconnect the main positive cable from all batteries to

eliminate the possibility of a short circuit while installing the distribution

panel. Also disconnect the AC shore power cord from the boat to

eliminate the possibility of electrocution from AC wiring in the proximity

of the DC distribution panel.

2. Apply Voltage Label

All panel components are sized for 12 or 24 Volt systems. Use the

labels provided to permanently identify the system voltage and its type

(DC) as required by ABYC. Apply the appropriate voltage label to

the recessed area on the front of the panel.

3. Select mounting location and cut opening

Select a mounting location which is protected from water on the panel

front and back and is not in an area where ﬂ ammable vapors from

propane, gasoline or lead acid batteries accumulate. The circuit

breakers used in marine electrical panels are not ignition protected and

may ignite such vapors.

Using the panel template provided, make a cut out in the mounting

surface where the distribution panel is to be mounted. Do not yet

fasten the panel to the mounting surface.

4. Install positive feed wire and negative return

Determine the positive feed (red) and negative return (black or yellow)

wire size by calculating the total amperage of the circuits that will be

routed through the panel. Blue Sea Systems’ electrical panels are

rated at 100 amp total capacity. The positive feed wire must be sized

for 3% voltage drop at the 100 amp panel rating or the maximum

amperage that will be routed through the panel in any particular

installation, whichever is less. It is recommended that the positive feed

wire be sized for the full panel capacity, which, in most cases, will

require at least 2 AWG wire, assuming a 10 foot wire run between the

panel and the batteries in 12 volt systems. Refer to the Wire Sizing

Chart for other situations. Remember that the length of the circuit is the

total of the positive wire from the power source and the negative wire

back to the DC Negative Bus. Be certain that there is a fuse or circuit

breaker of the correct size protecting the positive feed wire. In the

case of the 24 position panel, jumpers from positive bus to positive bus

and from negative bus to negative bus should be the same size as the

positve feed and the negative return wires.

5. Install branch circuit wires

Determine the proper wire size for each branch circuit using the

guidelines in step 4. Verify that the standard 15 amp circuit breakers

installed in the panel are large enough for each branch circuit. Remove

and replace with a higher amperage any that are undersized.

Connect the positive (red) branch circuit wires to the load terminals of

each circuit breaker.

Connect each negative (black or yellow) branch circuit wire to the DC

Negative Bus. DO NOT CONFUSE THE DC NEGATIVE BUS WITH

THE DC GROUNDING BUS.

6. Installation of Backlight System

Connect the yellow negative wire to the panel negative bus.

To activate the label lights by the boat’s battery switch, connect the red

positive wire to the DC panel positive bus.

To activate the label lights by an independent switch or breaker,

connect the red positive wire to the load side of the switch or breaker.

7. Optional - install grounding system wire

The grounding wire (bare, green or green with yellow stripe and

normally non-current carrying) should not be confused with the

negative ground wire (black or yellow and normally current carrying).
