shore power breaker wiring.

Post by Leviathon »

Took out helm this winter and cannot remember what wiring looks like in this small breaker box. So, imagine 2 breakers, a total of 6 wires coming in, a black and white from the power inlet, and 2 more black and whites coming in to the box. I get where the whites and grounds go, in particular, where does the black from the shore power inlet go? I should have took a pic.

Google on line there a number of sites that have excellent schematics for Basic AC Marine wiring.
Here is ABYC schematic.
