Please recommend Good Book on Marine Electrics
I am looking for a good book geared toward a technician that would
help cover grounding issues and their troubleshooting, Antennas and radio reception (VHF), AC generators/inverters and lightning protection. As I will be buying the book or books through an online selller, I won't have the chance to check it out in person. Thanks in advance for your recommendations. |

Charlie Wing's book is a good one for electrical systems. The best I've
seen for SSB is a freebie available on ICOM's website. For charging systems check out www.amplepower.com Doug, k3qt s/v Callista "Bob" wrote in message ...

particularly Charlie Wing's book. Chuck Doug Dotson wrote: Charlie Wing's book is a good one for electrical systems. The best I've seen for SSB is a freebie available on ICOM's website.

Beyn's "The 12-volt doctor's practical handbook for the boat's electrical system" is recommended reading. DP |

I highly recommend the marine electrical and electronics bible, by John C.
Payne. It covers all the subjects you mentioned; I learned a thing or two from it. John even solved a problem for me by email, that had the company tech for the device completely stumped.

Thanks all, for the advice. I wound up ordering the John Payne book,
"Motorboat Electrical & Electronics Manual", as it seemed the most technically inclined of those I looked at .
