jeaneau 44ds cabin ac outlets inop

[dfm]

hello jeanneau owners,

recently returned from month’s absence to 2014 Jeanneau 44DS, left on shore power, to find all cabin AC outlets unpowered. Same on shorepower, generator, and inverter. Air conditioner works normally. All DC normal. Cabin AC outlet circuit breaker is powered on both sides when on, and the wires disappear into untraceable rat’s nest behind panel. The wires entering the master CGFI outlet under the nav table are all unpowered. I have cycled on all circuit breakers I can find. It seems something between the circuit breaker and the outlet is blocking power.

My electric synoptic shows a tiny indecipherable detail box between the circuit breaker and the outlet. Does anybody know what and where this is?

thanks for any suggestions

I can't read the drawing, but I do know that my 2003 43DS had GFCI outlets installed at the factory, and Jeanneau chained groups of outlets off of one or two in the boat. So, look at all of your outlets for a square reset button for a GFCI. Push it in and the outlets will be restored. I have one that is particularly sensitive, and it trips every few months.

That box in the image you are asking about looks to be the GFI within the circuit. It is in the center of it all and probably your issue.

The order is shore power to breaker. Breaker to panel switch/breaker. Panel switch/breaker to GFI. GFI to all the other outlets.

The master GFI under the chart table controls all of the outlets after it. It the GFI is off, all of the outlets after it are off.

The master GFI has an on off switch built into it but, it ultimately gets powered by the AC outlet switch/breaker on the main control panel next to the water heater switch/breaker. 

Since you have already confirmed you have voltage coming out of the switch, the problem lies between the switch and the GFI or the GFI is bad. I would start there.

The only question I didn't ask is do you have an inverter in this mix? If so did a breaker pop on it?

Hopefully the rats nest of wires is just that and an actual rodent hasn't found a way on to your boat and made lunch out of your wires while you were gone. Good Luck.
