Noticed today my shore power is out. Panel shows no AC at all. Shore plug is live, and likewise, cord checked out. Is there a main fuse somewhere in addition to the breaker on the panel? If so, where is it located? Boat is a 2015 R-27.
Thanks
 
Sounds like the ELCI breaker has tripped. on my 31CB, it's under the aft cockpit seat, next to the shore power inlets. On your 27, I'd look all around the shore power inlet connector. Resetting it is easy, it's just a rocker switch.

We have this happen a lot, it's a real pain.

If this happens often, you may have a bad breaker. You might discuss this with the manufacturer. When I replaced mine I discovered that the first one had not been installed according to instructions. I don't know if this resulted in unit failure, frequent need to reset or prolonged time for the charger to kick in. In any event, a new one solved all of these problems.
 
On the R27 the ELCI should be at the aft end of the port (genset) locker.
 
Thanks for all the responses. Sure enough, breaker in port locker was tripped. Hate to admit it but since I never have had any problem before I never really noticed the breaker was there. I suspect a recent storm with quite a bit of lightning was the cause.
