I have just imported a 2006 bayliner 285 from the usa, need help for aussie power tv hws fridge charger microw
Tv is sharp aquos and doesnt receive aussie channels, where can i get parts from for power inlet, hws microwave stove etc. Is wiring ok for 240 volts. Are cycles compatible. How do you contact Bayliner as dealers aren't any help
wow! in the states we use 110v and boat are usually both, they will have a 12v system and a 110v system. be careful! have you done a bayliner search?

OK, here's the deal. Your Bayliner is wired to USA NEC code. It is wired for 110/120 volts, and I would not wire to 240 as the code is different. As for your TV, the frequencies are totally different. Contact Sharp and you may be able to change the settings, otherwise you need a new tv. I believe Australia AC is 50 cycle, but US is 60. I wish you luck…hopefully it won't be too expensive to convert.

The second answer is something you need to think about. Depending on what wire they use in the boat for the AC Voltage. Most wire in the USA is used for both 120 and 240 Volts. It also has a Gage like 12 gage or 14 gage and this how big the wire is. Then there is the number of wires used. For 240, I assume you may need at least 3 wires and maybe 4. All you need to do is know how the 240 needs to be wired and disregard how they have the 120. IF, any of the Boat appliances are 120 Volt they will need replaced, unless you know how to manipulate your 240 to get 120. The link is not much, but, maybe it will help. A local electrician can help explain this better for you and may be able to draw you a quick Diagram of what you need to do.

Voltage you can deal with via a transformer. Your major concern is the Cycles. Impedance is a function of frequency. The 50Hz power will produce 20 percent higher amperage and you will experience early burnout of motors. (and clocks will run slow.)
The TV problem is due to the system. One uses PAL and the other NST (or Something similar). This has something to do with cycles of electrons painting the screen.
If the appliances also run off DC, use a converter when you're on shore power and keep them on DC. You should also have no problem when on the Generator.
