Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] 30 Amp 125 volt shore power to 50 Amp 125/250 Volt plug?
Alexandre Uster von Baar
Hello Bill (Rouse),
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
My Transformer is Original (option) from Amel, just never been used. I can only hope the wiring was done accordingly to: blue wire goes to the neutral connection, brown wire goes to the hot and green/yellow goes to ground. I am honestly not sure an “electrician” could be useful, in the only 4 years that I own my boat, I have noted that 2/3 of the people I hired did not do a proper job, nor knew anything… and I keep seeing that for other boat owners… Marinco has confirm as well the link I mentioned will not work. When I mentioned the 2 x 30 Amp 125 Volt going to a 50 Amp 125/250 Volt, they say it would work “IF” the marina has a Split Phase, but I doubt the marina knew about that… Unfortunately that small marina in Tortola (Harbourview), so far only has 30 amp… this will be a first for me as well. I have been asking them for 1 week, the answer is: we are working on it… kind of reminds me of the Bahamas… Bill (Kinney), I know about my second shore power going to the Transformer, but since it has never been used since installed 16 years ago, I don’t know if it is working… and in my case, when I arrive somewhere i do have to work right away for my clients (need electricity, etc.). so no time for down time which Island people don’t understand… So now, I am just looking for back up alternatives… Craig, I have ask the marina is it was 50 Amp 125 Volt or 50 Amp 125/250 Volt, they were not able to answer… Sincerely, Alexandre --------------------------------------------

Without knowing what transformer you have and how it was wired...and if that wiring has changed, none of us can give you much input. I suggest that before you arrive at a marina that only has 110VAC available, that you consult with an electrician and have him inspect what you have. BTW, I was never in a marina that had only 110VAC 60htz available...they all had 110VAC and 220VAC 60 htz. You have my wiring graphic for wiring to 220VAC 60htz without an onboard transformer.

Since I have never used my big transformer on the boat, I am not sure it works, so trying to cover options. I need 220 volt. I am very ignorant when it comes to electricity… Would the following product be ok? http://www.go2marine.com/ product/389365F/pigtail-shore- power-adapter-30a-125v-male- to-50a-125-250v-female.html Or is there a problem with the phases or something else… I am not concerned with the Amp, but the voltage… Thanks in advance!
