I have bone stock 26X I am in process of outfitting.

I want to add a 30 amp shore power system to power 3 or 4 std 110v outlets. The system would include a 2000 watt combo inverter/battery charger, 2 marine battery's (1engine/operating & 1 house)

Where can I find a wiring diagram that shows me the BEST way to hook this all up.

I am totally out of my area of expertise here, but I did do a quick search on the forum for "wiring diagram: and found this discussion.

So in summary for those of us with ADD: Does shore power AC neutral tie to DC ground/negative battery terminal?

Grounding; All AC devices must be grounded. The ground and neutral wire are connected together at the dock and must not be connected together on board (except at generators and internally in inverters) The main AC ground bus must be connected to the engine negative terminal or the DC main negative, or the boats DC grounding bus (ABYC E11)

Perfect! Thanks Rich
