Our team also installs and updates electrical systems on older vessels.

Few weeks ago we renewed the electrical system of a older, 50 feet long, sailing boat.

Our colleagues Rok and Marko updated the existing electrical sistem, which ran on lead batteries, to a system which is now being powered by lithium batteries. Because they changed the power source, Marko and Rok had to also switch out the components for battery protection and install a new main switchboard. They also installed a new operational control system for the batteries, which can be monitored with the help of a smart phone. The new electrical system will prolong battery life, enable a more efficient use of the electrical energy and provide longer hours of worry-free sailing.

We wish the sailboat and its owner fair winds and calm seas!
