    Moving A/C devices from one leg to another

    I am assuming that if I were to move, say one of the air conditioners from Leg 2 to Leg 1, that I am going to have to also identify the White Neutral, and probably ground, to move from the common Leg 2 bus to the Leg 1 bus as well?

    For you AB owners Nautilus to be exact

    Suppose your bow light was intruded by salt water. HOW do you replace it? Let's assume the wires have corroded off below the light, and you don't have a wire protruding from the hole in the bow step. I sent a query to AB, and they have chosen to not respond.

    New to me, 350 hours each repower I did late last year. LA Fire Rescue engines, but they did sit for a couple of years without being run.
