Fitting shore power is not a matter of running an extension lead into a locker. It is a fixed mains installation on a metal or composite structure surrounded by water, and everything about how it is protected, earthed and isolated matters.
This is qualified work from end to end. What follows is what the job actually involves, so you know what you are paying for and what questions to ask.
A typical installation is a chain of components, each doing a specific job.
The safety earth must remain effective, and at the same time you want to avoid importing galvanic problems from the pontoon. That balance is exactly what galvanic isolators and isolation transformers are for, and specifying the right one depends on the boat, its metals and how it is used.
Once installed, the system is tested and the results recorded. Documentation matters for insurance, for any future survey and for whoever works on the boat next. We hand over what we have tested and how it is wired rather than leaving you to guess.
Cable route length and access dominate. A straightforward run on an open boat is quick, a run through a headlining and behind joinery on a finished yacht is not. Charger size, isolation choice and how many outlets you want do the rest.
We assess on board first and quote in writing, itemised, so you can see where the money goes.
Marine installations differ from domestic in earthing, cable type, support and corrosion resistance, so it is work for someone who does it on boats regularly.
On a boat kept on a shore powered pontoon it is usually a sensible part of the installation. Which option suits depends on your underwater metals and berth.
Most boats are a day or two depending on access and how much joinery has to come apart, and we confirm that after seeing the boat.
