Rinker 260 EC Aircon

[markbellino]

Hello All.

I have AC/Heating on my 260 EC. The wiring diagram in the owner's manual shows a seperate 30 amp 110V inlet for the AC.  I have only 1 x 30 amp inlet at the back of the boat. Does this run all the appliances including the aircon on the 260?

Thanks!

Yes. When on shore power, the a/c will be running unless you turn it off on the breaker box inside the cabin.

So the a/c shares the same shore power 110V inlet as the rest of the appliances?

[pepmyster]

yes sir!!!!

Thank you!

Maybe you can shed some light on my other post about the battery switch?

I believe= 1 is crank.............2=house...............1+2 crank and house.
If anchored for a awhile ..put only on 2 so not to wear out your crank battery.

Yep.  House batteries while not on shore power.  That way you can always start your engines.  I do not bother to switch if I am just out for the day and motor around every so often.  But if I am going to sit beached or at anchor and run the stereo and other draining things, then I will switch to house only.

Okay, I called Rinker about this - move to my other post - the 260 EC is wired a little different according to them.
