Re: Shore Power Breaker Trip - Problem apparently on the boat

Hi Mark that is the auto switch over for shore power and Generator. It is a common fault after this long. I removed mine and put in a manual switch Which means I have to go into the engine room and manually switch over from generator
to shore power on the rare occasions I go into a marina. I’ll hunt down the part number of the manual switch and post when I find it?
And here is the new installation

Tried another
pedestal so began to investigate on the boat. Found a problem, but since I don’t have a complete wiring diagram I’m kind of guessing as I go along. Does anyone know what this is or function of this? It appears to be where shore power comes in and out. There
are a lot of burnt wires behind it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Mark S/V It’s Good SM #105 Gloucester Point, VA
