The BLUE SEA 3-position DC distribution panel is designed for managing and protecting electrical circuits on board. Its main functions include power distribution, cable protection (circuits), switching circuits on/off, and indicating their status (live circuit).

This panel is made of 5052-H32 aluminum alloy with a thickness of 2.54 mm (0.100 inch).

The panel is slate gray. It has a chemical conversion coating compliant with military specification C-5541C, followed by a graphite-colored textured polyurethane two-part finish.

Yes, this panel is designed to withstand typical above-deck water exposure. This includes salt spray, rain, hose-downs, and momentary immersion.

The overall dimensions of the panel are 133.40 x 95.30 mm (5-1/4 x 3-3/4 inches).

The BLUE SEA 3-position distribution panel is designed to handle three separate circuits.

The fuse holders on this panel accept standard 1-1/4" x 1/4" AGC (fast-acting) and MDL (slow-blow) glass fuses.

Yes, the panel is shipped with pre-installed 15 amp AGC (fast-acting) fuses for each circuit.

Each circuit is equipped with an LED indicator built into the switch. This LED lights up when the circuit is live, with a nominal lifespan of 100,000 hours at half-life.

Yes, it is important to select a mounting location that is not an area where flammable vapors (from propane, gasoline, or lead-acid batteries) could accumulate. This panel is not protected against ignition and could ignite such vapors.

The panel must be mounted on a surface cut using the provided template. Once the opening is made, the included sealing gasket must be placed between the panel and the mounting surface. Then, the panel is firmly screwed to the surface using the provided mounting screws, after ensuring that all surfaces are clean and free of debris.

The main positive power feed cable (red) must be sized for a 3% voltage drop at the panel’s full 45 amp capacity, or at the maximum amperage to be carried through the panel if lower. It is recommended to size the cable for the panel’s full capacity, which in most cases will require at least an 8 AWG cable for a 12-volt system with a 3-meter (10-foot) cable run between the panel and the batteries. This cable must be protected by a properly sized fuse or circuit breaker.

A 16 AWG wire must be used to connect the LED negative power cable (yellow) to the DC negative bus, such as a Blue Sea Systems MiniBus PN 2304.

Yes, the panel is supplied with 30 basic circuit labels. They can be applied to the recessed area at the front of the panel. An extended 120-label set (PN 8039) can be ordered separately if the required labels are not found.

Yes, before starting the installation, it is imperative to disconnect the main positive cable from all batteries to eliminate any risk of short-circuit. You must also disconnect the AC power cord from the boat’s dock to avoid any risk of electrocution due to nearby AC wiring in the DC distribution panel.

The total cumulative capacity of this distribution panel is 45 amperes.

Yes, this distribution panel is designed to operate with 12 V or 24 V DC electrical systems.

For a 12-volt system, the maximum capacity per switch and fuse holder is 20 amps.

For a 24-volt system, the maximum capacity for each switch and fuse holder is 15 amps.

Any Blue Sea Systems product that a customer is not satisfied with can be returned for a refund or replacement at any time.
