Re: Shore power, small battery charger, genset, inverter.
Chris,
It is impossible for me to know what has been changed since 433 was built.
You should not switch power sources with any load. The SM2k originally had an automated relay switch that gave the

Fuel tank inspection
I want to clean my fuel tank, I can only see one small cap that I assume is for the sending unit. Before I tear off the foam cover glued to the tank looking for a larger inspection port, I thought I

Re: Shore power, small battery charger, genset, inverter.
Chris,
On our SM, the main circuit breaker is also a GFCI. On mine, this is indicated by a label reading "I∆n = 0.03A" on the circuit breaker, which means it has a 30mA ground fault limit. Given

Re: Shore power, small battery charger, genset, inverter.
Chris,
I agree with Bill, although I would note the Victron is the large 100amp charger and the Chargemaster is the small 40amp one - you may have reversed that in your post. A starting point may be

Re: Masse negative leak
Good luck. Let me know how it goes. Sometimes the cause is evasive. I should have also said the most probable suspect after the macerator pumps is anything that you have added or changed AC or DC

I have been playing around at trying to identify the leak to no avail. So the next step will be as you suggest. I will disconnect the battery positive cables and the remove all the negative cables

Shore power, small battery charger, genset, inverter.
My SM Pure Magic, hull no. 433, is presently connected to shorepower @ 220V, 60 Hz. During a recent inspection I was asked to operate the Onan genset, but overlooked switching off the small battery

Craig, I have known Amel to "learn" and add recommendations that did not exist 30 years ago. I don't know when the generator recommendation started, but it in fact does exist.

Re: Masse negative leak
Nick,
I did it by unbolting at least one of the main switches and pulling it aside.
You can also remove the positive wire from the battery bank to the switch by unbolting it at the junction block

I cannot speak to other models, but in the factory handover of the 55, they made it clear to fire the genset and both chargers prior to starting docking maneuvers. I am not on the boat
