  1. OWNER - I own a Hatteras Yacht
Hatteras Model
52' CONVERTIBLE (1983 - 1990)
I have a 1984 52c. Has anyone sourced replacement 60 amp fuse holders or just the cap assembly needed at the shore power input plug? Sam's price for just for the cap is $206 !!!!!!
 
Replace with a circuit breaker. Safer...

Why would these even be here? I have circuit breakers inside at the electrical panel.
 
You need fuse or breaker when the panel is more than 8 or 10’ from where the shore power comes into the boat. (ABYC requirement)

Marinco makes breakers installed in a shore power enclosure. Easy to install next to the shore power inlet. Or if you have access from inside you can install a breaker inside the boat, typical with cable masters
 
FIC Corporation was the manufacturer. Years ago I bought replacements from them when I had my 52, but as stated above use a circuit breaker.

I went to the Marinco web site and can not find the "breakers installed in a shore power enclosure" that you referred to.

Thanks to all for the feedback!
 
I think you have the wrong manufacturer. It s hubbel if memory serves

For 240 Volt boats a 2 pole will work. no neutral. For 120/240 you need a 3 pole breaker to fit in the 2 space box.
 
Hubble must have them too.

Every boat I ve been on with 120/240-50 always had dual pole breakers for the hots. Not neutral even on boats without isolation transformers
 
Check with ABYC. You will find a whole lot is different than you think.

Newest requirement is ELCI and its 2 poles for 240 V and 3 poles for 120/240. Im sure safety is job one so look at the new products and upgrade as necessary.

I just started the install of a 2 pole ELCI and an isolation /Buck/boost transformer at 12.5KW ( 50 amp 240 to 120 /240 ) with 2 boost levels and all automated.

Its going into a Victron system with pass through and invert and LiFePo Batteries. Its going to be sweet.

Were adding balmar regulators and second alternators on each engine to charge.
 
If I read things correctly ELCI is basically the same as a GFCI but at the service entrance?
 
Stolen off the internet

The difference is in the level of imbalance, or leaking amperage, that trips the breaker. In-home GFI and GFCI breakers trip at very low imbalance levels while ELCI breakers trip at much higher imbalance levels. RCD's trip at imbalance levels between GFI and ELCI
 
i have a new one. pm me
