R23 Shore Power and Galvanic Isolator wire location

[RThorn]

A newbie trying to learn. I have read and read but still have question on the wiring for my galvanic Isolator

I have 2019 R23.

I have pulled the cover plate so I can see the back of the shore power connection. I have laid on my belly with my head on top of the batteries trying to see where the wires go. The shore power disappears at the port side of the stern. Not sure where it goes from there. Before it disappears all the wires are protected by what looks like white heat shrink as one bundle. Do they come out of the bundle someplace behind where the charger is mounted? I do see two green wires that are zipped tied with about a one foot loop in them. Is one of those the wire that comes from the shore power connection? They both go to the same busbar. How do I tell which one is the one from the shore power? I could disconnect them and check continuity, but I was hoping for an easier answer. Thaks for all the help in advance!

pictures are even better!

Here’s my 2021 R-23 with the galvanic isolator from the factory. I had the panel off for my battery project and happened to snap this pic.

In this pic, the grin on the shore power inlet goes to the isolator and then back to the tri-cable with the other conductors.

The shore power cable runs up to the ELCI breaker on the power panel.

Again, this is a 2021, so there may be some differences.

I have a 2021 Cutwater 28, our shore power receptacle is on the port side at the stern. I unscrewed the plug-in on the boat and connected to the green on the plug- in from the Galvanic Isolator and then connected down stream from there from the out on the Galvanic Isolator. Hope this helps

Here is how I did mine: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=20819&sid=fbba55e1a40d6015d27ad99c6e48a886#p135471

- disconnect ground (green) wire from back of shore power receptacle (i replaced mine with a SmartPlug, but that is irrelevant here)
- using marine-grade water-tight butt connector, extend that wire so it is long enough to reach galvanic isolator (mounted on inside of stern)
- from other side of galvanic isolator, run a new wire back to the shore power receptacle
