Hi All:
I have a KK Manatee. the Voltage in the Pilot house seems to be about 10.5 volts (measured on a reasonably high quality meter) This is regardless of whether we are on shore power, house battery or generator. The Power run from the Distribution panel to the Pilot house Sub-panel is reasonably short (maybe 15 feet) the overall wiring is not to my liking to the sub-panel, but I do now understand who i can have a 2.5-3 volt drop. Does anyone have any ideas where to start looking? (At this point I may run a larger pair of wires from the main panel to the pilot house and re-wire or replace the distribution panel up there)
Thanks
