Macerator Wiring and Other Electrical

Squatch68

The PO of my 08 280 had installed a jabsco electric conversion kit for the head. He tied it into the vacuflush switch and breaker. The breaker trips constantly since its only a 10 amp breaker and the unit draws 24 amps. Was planning on running a 10 awg wire, changing the switch for higher amp, and changing the breaker to 25 amps but then noticed the macerator breaker in the battery panel is 20 amps and 10 awg wire. My boat does not have a macerator (aside from the electric conversion of course).

I am wondering where the macerator wires from the breaker terminate? Also wondering how to gain access to the wires that are run to the head currently (through the mid bilge maybe?) Also does anyone know the path rinker took to run wires to the switch panel above the tv?

If you remove the closet above the sink, you will find the wires for the vacuflush coiled up. They are a heavier gauge wire and they should go back to the battery switch box. The wires for the macerator terminate in the engine room in front of the waste tank. The wire for that switch will be sitting on the starboard side on the outside wall just below the forward u shaped seat. The wiring diagram for the boat is on the site here.
