Boatowner's Illustrated Wiring Manual is a user-friendly, practical manual for all onboard electrical projects - from fixing loose connections to rewiring the entire boat. Simple, clear and abundantly illustrated, it is the key to understanding and customising all aspects of a boat's electrical systems. This new edition includes new battery, alternator and other technologies as well as new 3D perspective drawings and a colour wiring section. Wing explains DC and AC wiring materials and systems, batteries, alternators, inverters, generators, corrosion control, and alternative energy installations (solar, wind and water). There are detailed instructions for wiring radios and navigation equipment, installing cabin lights, navigation lights, burglar alarms, battery charge indicators, bilge alarms, and extensive tables summarise the most important specifications in a handy quick-reference format. This book, from an author who specialises in making the complex simple, will be a godsend for all boatowners. 'Deserves a permanent place on your shelves.' Boating World
