Completed Electrical Work
Very little electrical work has been completed. The Original Wiring describes the terrible wiring that the boat came with. As a result one of the few things completed was tearing out the old wiring which is nearly done. The battery boxes have been completed except putting to power posts on the boxes.
Batteries, battery boxes and installation
Replacing battery banks involves deciding how many battery banks are needed and what size, selecting and purchasing batteries, building battery boxes, installing them and then starting the process of wiring the high amperage connections. The Battery Selection web page describes the reason for having 48V, 24V, and 12V battery banks and the selection of batteries. A total of 18 kWh of batteries have been purchased. The Battery Box Design web page describes the design of the battery boxes. The battery boxes have been built and painted, though the power posts have not been attached to the battery boxes and the batteries have not been installed in the boxes and wired. The Battery Installation Plan web page describes the plan for installing the batteries. The batteries have not yet been installed.
