My 2001 380 DA has five batteries (one for generator; two ganged labeled starboard; two ganged labeled port). Which bank (Starboard or Port is considered the "house" bank)? Thanks
 
Searay swapped this up for differnt years. My 2002 340 the port is the house side.

If you want to know turn off one side at the power pannel and try working the DC lights, or something DC in the cabin. if it works the side on is your house. if it dont its the other.

also for refernce all the stuff at the helm (tridata, nav lights, cockpit lights all that is on the opposit side of the house.)
 
Thanks. I followed Mittens' advice and determined STBD bank is for house. I recently installed a new battery charger and wanted to hook up the temp sensor to the house bank battery. Appreciate your help.
