Blue Sea Systems 8374 Contura Switch Water-Resistant Panel, 3 Position, Black

The Blue Sea Systems 8374 is a Contura Switch Water-Resistant Panel built for open-cockpit and flybridge boats where controls are exposed to spray and wash-down. It is designed around Contura switches, the same illuminated switch style used on many production boats, so it complements existing helm controls rather than looking like an aftermarket add-on. The panel front carries an IP66 rating, meaning it is protected against powerful water jets, and a watertight mounting gasket seals the panel to the mounting surface to keep moisture out of the wiring behind it.

Each switch position has an ON indicating LED built in so you can see at a glance which circuits are active, along with a red reverse polarity indicating LED. The panel is designed for 12V or 24V DC systems, making it suitable across a range of boat electrical setups, and it ships fully pre-wired with the hot, neutral, and safety ground buses already installed. This 3 position panel is finished in black and includes a Small Format Label Set (available as 8217 in gray or 8214 in black) so each switch can be clearly labeled for its circuit.
