Electrical Systems
H - 1
GENERAL
All electrical equipment on the Four Winns V265 and
V285 models operate on 12 volts DC or 120 volts (220
volts on 50 Hertz models) AC electrical power. The
V265 and V285models are equipped with dual battery
systems along with dockside power (including battery
charger) as standard features. Batteries are located in
the engine compartment.
Fire or Explosion Hazard!
Electrical system parts are designed by and
manufactured to comply with the US Coast
Guard requirements to minimize risks of fire
or explosion. Never substitute automotive
parts for marine parts. Automotive parts do
not provide the necessary ignition spark
protection.
V265
DO NOT tamper with any electrical connection,
panel or harness, or attempt installation of any
electrical equipment unless thoroughly familiar
with the systems and experienced in making
such installations.
V285
Figure H1: Dual Battery Systems
Circuit breakers are installed on the battery switch to
protect various system components. The SHIP SYS-
TEMS breaker supplies power to all DC electrical
components except the aft bilge pump and forward
bilge pump (if applicable), stereo, ignition, and instru-
mentation. Additional breakers are located in the cabin
circuit breaker panel. The circuit breakers and/or fuses
are labeled for amperage and use. The dash compo-
nents are protected by a fuse panel.
NOTICE
Be sure the two red (positive) cables are in-
stalled on the positive (+) battery terminals.

SYSTEM
When disconnecting the cables from the
battery, make sure all switches are off and
disconnect the black negative cable(s) first to
prevent spark.
A battery selector switch is installed on the dual battery
system. This allows DC power to be used from either
one or both batteries. Refer to the schematics in the
back of the manual.
