    I am putting together a 12v electrical system for a 46' cat. Not having done this before I thought I might post the circuit diagram that I have come up with in the hopes that I might be set straight before setting fire to my boat.
    The way I have it set up the house bank is charged mainly by a 440A solar array with an older Ampair wind generator and backup from the alternators. The start batteries are charged with Echo Chargers. House circuits in the hulls will be serviced via 4AWG cables running the length of the hulls with fuseblocks at intervals. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Mike
