The Charger (unknown brand) on my boat has a internal float. When I plug into shore power the charger either goes into float mode or charges depending on the battery power level. My question is, should my charger be wired to a switch on the panel allowing the option to bypass it when on shore power? My batteries have the standard on/off,1,2,all switch but that doesn’t do anything for the charger. It seems whenever I search this topic I only come up with the battery switch.
The only thing I power on shore power is a small refrigerator that can be powered on AC or DC. While at the dock I switch to AC.
