Ground loops are a real nightmare for electronics and every low voltage/current systems which are not designed to handle high currents. Fortunately, you figured out in which condition it happened and you were able to find solutions to prevent damages in the future. Great job 👍 I've been leaning a lot watching your videos. Even a relatively "small" boat like Brupeg (small compared to cruise ships for instance) is a very complex assembly. So many various systems involved, which are supposed to run together. Your knowledge must cover almost every technical domain. I'm impressed!

It's a really good principal to employ, to have isolated input buffers on every sensor this not only gives isolation from ground loops but also high voltage transients from lightening, power surges and radio interference. If the input buffers have adjustable gain you can calibrate them to a universal set of voltages for minimum or maximum readings.... As well as feeding the analogue to digital convertors, these can also feed a set of backup analog gauges for use in case of a network failure...

Those solar cut off breakers are not rated correct. You need disconnect switches with much larger gaps to safely cutoff DC power from PV panels. I have seen videos of those catching fire after a couple times using. DC has a gap depending on voltage and current. That gap needs to be larger than the highest arc it can create. Disconnect switches have oversize gaps and those breakers do not. Just giving you heads up so you do not burn down your boat.

They both still work, but their output power is severely limited now. I wouldn't trust them out on the water. That said, I have one of these that I've had actively cooled (80mm PC fan with thermistor control) for years now, even in the summer heat and it's still rockin' Just my 2cents, but I'd rather have you spend another 30 bucks or whatever and be safe than have everything die in the middle of the ocean.

My 2 Growatt 5k all in one inverters do what you are trying to do. I can tell them to take 1 amp to 100 amps each from grid (that is your shore power) to charge batteries. I have mine setup so batteries power inverters and house 24/7 until my batteries get below 15% then they use grid to power all loads. Next day sun comes out and charges batteries to programmed amount (60%) then grid is not used and back on batteries. This only happens Nov-Jan. I also keep an eye on storms so if their is a chance of power outage from grid I have them fully charge my 60kw battery bank which gives me 3 days of power in winter and then set grid to charge at 2-5 amps per inverter to keep my batteries above 80% at night. Once they fully charge batteries inverters stop charging with PV and Grid. Now if I can do this with a Growatt than you should be able to with your fancy high priced Victron.

Would be nice to have a system for automatic check for any wrong grounding of both DC and AC, so that your alarmsystem will register and log time of any faults. Makes it easier to locate the fault, long before any melted cables. No system should use the ships ground as reference. If anything makes a pass to ships hull, nothing happens, as long as only one thing has an earth fault, and it's located and fixed or removed from the systems pretty soon. It would be simple for Duncan to incorporate. You could also have old school sets of Earth-lamps and a momontary push button, for simple and fast manual check on both the DC and the AC in the engineroom and at the switchboard.

That is hot enough to burn steel, especially when it is as thin as your box. I know it is not a major risk but, I also read that such fires may be caused by too rapid a charge.

So, 20 deg C (20 degs C above freezing) = 32 + (20 * 1.8) = 32 + 36 = 68 deg F. I find that this is handy to remember. The only time the temperature is the same on both scales is at -40.

@cameronpollard9212 not many carburettor cars for sale these days. Each to their own but electronics have move on a lot from the old stories. Most trawlers these days have common rail electronic controlled engines. It’s only the legacy stuff that’s still hanging onto mechanical engines. Don’t get me wrong mechanic engines are fantastic engines and last forever, but the newer engines are pretty amazing. We try not to throw the baby out with the bath water

@ProjectBrupeg Hah. Salt water will win in the end with electronics mate. That or earth leaks will eat your keel pipes off. It takes just 1 issue with a sender or connection going to ground. But hey you know that so don't need to be taught eh.

@cameronpollard9212 I’m not saying having electronics is good or bad. But it’s becoming normal for a reason. Reliability goes up overall. Maybe we just agree to disagree. Let’s just enjoy boating however it shows

When other new crew are in engine room. Is fuel filter system safe from people & should there be a fold out cover. To protect from being nocked by people or cargo. Is there a minimum engine operating system to rely on. Noticed the quick shut down of solar. Procedures may help with a complicated electrical system. Could be a project for cadets & you supervise. If you are using equipment, outboard, dive tanks, power system always try to operate not at maximum. No parts in remote areas. Use to drink lemon squash had quinine in it for mosquitoes. Videos are agreat but do take time. Bow is the happy place. Looking forward to seeing the journey. Life will change. What about a big kite to help tow breupeg. More ear protection for engine room . Great electrical fix.
