Boat Grounding at Kelly Carson blog

Boat Grounding. One of the classically misunderstood and overlooked systems on board most boats is the grounding/bonding system, which is fairly easy to identify: By using capacitors to block dc connections in a few key areas, it is possible to have perfect ground systems for ac, dc, rf,. Earthing is necessary part of the electrical circuitry whether at land or at sea. We explain the difference between grounding in electrostatic sense and marine grounding, describe how marine grounding can be implemented safely and how it complements. On a boat, this path to ground is generally to the engine block. In virtually all cases, it's insulated copper wire with a covering that's green or green with a yellow stripe. By “grounding” each appliance (whether ac or dc), you provide an immediate and easy path for the electricity to travel, eliminating the danger of shock and ignition (and reducing the possibility of corrosion). So how do we achieve ship grounding when it is surrounded.
