The purpose of this guide is to give you a fundamental grasp of AC electrical systems commonly found in boats built by leading manufacturers in the United States, Canada, and other countries. It will also introduce you to a variety of Marinco electrical products. Before proceeding, we strongly advise you to carefully read and understand the information in your boat's owner's manual and to thoroughly inspect your onboard systems.

It's important to know the location of your panelboard, identify the circuits controlled by each breaker, and understand how your shore power system works. AC electrical systems are relatively simple and easy to comprehend. With a bit of common sense and basic knowledge, you'll likely be able to diagnose and fix many issues on your own.

However, if problems become too complex or if you need significant modifications, it's best to consult a qualified marine electrician. The concise glossary of the most frequently used electrical terminology, as applied to the boats, is also included.
