Hi dmck, found this on BEP Marine online catalogue - thanks for the tip updmck wrote: ↑Thu Feb 18, 2021 7:50 pmBe damned careful. Attached is a wiring diagram from a major component manufacturers 2021 catalogue. Wire it like this and you could be in big trouble if either battery fails......
It is IMPOSSIBLE to isolate a faulty battery and have motor and instruments operating on the remaining good battery.

However, I have committed all the hardware (battery switch, ACR, fuses block, busbar and panel switch) with Blue Sea System. They are on the expensive side but will have the confidence at sea.
Unexpected and unfortunately incidents can always happened at sea - hopefully with the hand on experience re-wiring the boat, I will be in a better position to fix the issue at hand.
