1989 Prestancia Fuses/Breakers

[spacecrew]

I will start by saying I have recently purchased a 1989 Prestancia and I haven't even had it in the water yet. My boat is put away for the winter but I was looking through my pictures to find where the fuses/breakers are.

All I can find are the breakers (push-button style) behind the mirror but those are only for dash/console.

Are there breakers or fuses for the other 12V and 120V systems? (fridge, bilge pumps, outlets, etc.)? There's a main electrical panel with switches, but these switches do not look like they are the automatic tripping type...

Thanks.

The breakers (look like switches) are on the panel in your companionway. (stairs that lead to cabin) The main distribution panel is port side, accessed via mid cabin. looking in you'll see the hot water heater on left, stick your head in and look right, you should see the panel, and vacuum if installed.

Thanks. I need to replace my terminal block (port side) because some of the leads melted (slightly). I was just making sure I didn't need to replace the terminal block with something with fuses.
