https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/awg-wire-gauge-d_731.html Hi , The wire I removed was 2.5 mm diameter not 2.5 sq mm. I don’t know why mine is different. In any event 2.5 mm equates to over

I'd advise against wiring a cigarette lighter receptacle for 24V. Inevitably (maybe the next owner), someone will plug in 12V equipment there and blow something up. If you did want to do this, the

Per Alan's comment here is the link to Olivier Beaute's previous post regarding the Shore Power Plug and Cable on Amel SMs:

Hi Eric, I guess you know not to leave any surplus cable length coiled up. It can cause the wire to overheat and catch on fire. Regards Danny SM 299 Ocean Pearl Mangonui New Zealnd Sent from my

Thanks Ryan, Mark, Eric and Alexandre, All good advice, and yes electrolysis is not the correct term. I'll be pursuing several solutions. I sincerely appreciate the responses and suggestions Sent

Vladimir, thanks for your reply. It seems reasonable if I don't go over half the rated 12V amps. Eric, My boat has 220 volt outlets at the aft cabin desk and in the aft head instead of 24 volt. I

Duane, We have a 24 volt plug at my table in my cabin and in the head. It is the same plug as on the fans. You could change the plug on your cpap machine and plug it into one of your fan outlets in

Brent, The time delays are standard on my Climma 9eh AC units. If you open up the black control box, mounted to the white panel is a small electrical device with a knob on it with numbers. That is

Hi, I do not understand how you get 220 volts between a hot leg and the neutral in the USA. The Neutral (white) has the same potential as the green ground. Only the connection between the red and

I'm going to put a 24 volt outlet in the aft cabin to run a CPAP (less than 2 amps at 24V) that has a 12/24 volt transformer block on the chord with a cigarette style plug. My problem is I can't

The cable on our SM is rated 16A. There is a previous discussion on this forum where Olivier confirmed that. Cheers Alan Elyse SM437

Kent , Pretty sure this is what I bought and it fit perfectly , there is several sizes available , but I think 1/2" X 1/2" is what I ordered. Take a measurement of your hatches to be sure. It comes
