Shore Power

[dalejr03]

Hi all. 2007 Maxum 2600SE. So you keep the battery selector in “off” position when shore power is connected and boat is sitting at marina not in use? The only things I have on are the shore power 1 & 2 and battery charger breakers as well as both aft and forward bilge pumps. Any issues anyone foresee? I have read. number of posts in which people debate whether to leave in off or on 1, 2 or 1&2 selectors.

Never leave it in the both position as this leaves the possibility that both batteries can be discharged if you accidentally leave something on. I turn it off on my boat. The bilge pump float switches are directly wired to the batteries so they will still operate if needed.
