On my 39 foot Beneteau 393, I have a zinc fish connected to engine
ground via a stud I installed in my cockpit. When I place an analog meter between the fish and the boat's ground, I read 50 mA with most of my electrics off (except Link20, galvanic isolator monitors, bilge pumps), 70mA with some DC power on, and 100mA if I also connect to shore power (I have galvanic isolators, unsure why the current should change) Where is a reference I can go to, to learn is this is acceptable ? E.g. where do I cross the line between this providing evidence I am getting intended galvanic protection vs. evidence there is a problem ? Thank, |
