Appropriate procedure for connecting and disconnecting from Shore Power
My boat is a 110v in Australia, so our shore power is 240V. That said my boat has a converter for converting the 240v to 110v (signed off to code by a marine electrician), so I don't think it will affect my procedure, just as an FYI.
I understand the general procedure is:
Connecting Shore Power
1. Ensure shore breaker is "Off"
2. Ensure boat breaker is "Off"
3. Connect cord to boat outlet
4. Connect cord to shore outlet
5. Flip shore breaker to "On"
6. Flip boat breaker to "On"
7. Check for Reverse Polarity
Disconnecting from Shore Power
1. Turn off breaker on shore
2. Turn off breaker on boat
3. Remove cord from boat outlet
4. Remove cord from short outlet
Is this sufficient, or (as I suspect) there is more to it? For example:
In the attached picture, should I be turning the silver dial in the bottom right hand corner to "Off" and the Shore Power 1 switch in the top left hand corner to off? If so, I assume I do that after checking for reverse polarity (step 7)?
