Clarification on the confusing regulatory alphabet soup

USCG Explained. Most boaters understand the role of the United States Coast Guard in Search and Rescue operations and in boarding pleasure craft to inspect for compliance with safety equipment required. What are not as clearly understood are the Coast Guard's duties in inspecting boats as they are manufactured. A new Technical Brief explains this role. Click here for more information.

Why every inverter needs a cut-off switch
 
In the last newsletter we made the case for cut-off switches by relating the story of the Trace Inverter that found itself inundated by a leak in the engine cooling plumbing. The happy ending to the story is that upon returning to the dock the Trace unit was removed and sent to Trace Engineering for what was assumed to be extensive repairs at best and a post mortem at worst. Trace inspected the inverter (at no charge) and found it to be in perfect working condition! That the inverter could withstand a direct saltwater blast while operating and survive with no damage is a testament to a well-engineered piece of equipment.

Current Flow in AC 120 and 240 Volt systems
 
Blue Sea Systems' new AC digital meters are capable of working with 120/240V AC systems. However, the Technical Support group is being flooded with calls about how to utilize these meters in 120/240V AC applications. A new Technical Brief; Current Flow in AC 120 and 240 Volt Systems is the first in a series of articles designed to explain the sometimes confusing nature of 120/240V AC systems and lay a foundation for installing metering in these systems. Click here for more information.
