Next message: Karl Denninger: "Re: lv-ab: Galvanic current"
Hi Folks,
A dockmate recently measured 450 mA of current flowing from
shorepower source, through his boat , and into the S.F. bay.
I'm pretty darn sure that will eat our zincs DARN quick!
should we;
install isolation transformers OR
install galvanic isolators?
He is new to the marina and the boat that was there before
was abandoned. I believe he had a direct connection from AC
ground to the bay, therefore providing the rest of us on
this dock some protection since after 3 years here my out of
the water survey showed my zincs to be fine. That was two
years ago though.
