6.3Installation In Steel or Aluminum Vessels

Installation of a generator set in a vessel constructed of a material capable of conducting current (e.g., steel or aluminum) is subject to considerations not normally encountered in fiberglass or wood vessels. These differences include equipment grounding, grounding of neutral conductors, ground-fault protection, and isolation of galvanic currents.

The scope of these topics is too extensive to be fully discussed here. Consult your local marine authority for more information.

Before installing the generator set, check the available wiring diagrams in the operation manual to become familiar with the electrical system.

6.4 Installation Regulations

The U.S. Coast Guard governs generator set installation in U.S. pleasurecraft and commercial vessels. Refer to the applicable regulations below:
