46E Panel 414 help
« on: February 08 2020, 19:30 »
We have a 1997 Bavaria 46E. The 12V electrical panel is model 414. It's a different model than the one (418) that appears in a copy of the 1998 46E owner's manual I have. I've attached a photo of the panel. And if anyone out there has this model panel and has the schematic for it, I'd love a copy!

A couple of questions:

1) What is the typical amp rating on the breakers? It doesn't say on the panel :(
in particular, right now I need to know the rating for #17 -- the deck wash pump. (A PO installed a 24V pump, that doesn't run very well, and I want to replace it with as high of PSI pump as I can)

2) What do these breakers do:
 #9
#12
#21
#22

#9 - Radios (vhf, 27meg, am/fm)
#12 - pump (probably bilge, although not quite sure)
#21 - fridge
#22 - ???

Thanks, Konan.

So, #21 with the *** is "fridge"? Wonder why one of the POs has the working fridge breaker as #19... mysteries :)

As to why, your guess is just as valid as mine....
As to capacity of the breakers, remove the panel and check the markings on the breakers.  It’s possible that they’ve been changed from the originals and therefore looking back into a manual issued over 20 years ago will not resolve the question.
Might 22 be a hifi unit?
