I've added so much 12v crap that I've overloaded the house circuit. Low voltage at the helm when I've got lighting, electronics, pumps, etc. on). It's not the 8D batteries, so it's got to be the small (10 ga) feed. Here's what I can't figure out:
There are two 12v breaker panels in the bilge (Port & Stbd). Both P & S panels have a 50 amp "accessory" breaker. Turning off the Stbd. battery switch kills BOTH the helm AND the 12V main breaker panel in the salon- far as I can tell, the whole boat is dead.
So, what does the port accessory breaker feed?
Any reason I can't add another (8 ga., breakered) feed to the helm in addition to the "factory" feed?
