=== Task Lighting ===
In the galley, put LEDs or DC cold cathode fluorescents or difused LED lighting under the cupboards, hidden behind a valence, to provide task lighting on a separate switch. Don’t use a dimmer here.
In the engine room, use DC LEDs in general but have a separate circuit for AC cold cathode fluorescents for use with shore power. Provide outlets for both DC and AC trouble lights.
In the berths, galley and dinette use DC low-voltage white or blue LEDs as spot or reading lights. Their cooler temperature will make enclosed spaces more comfortable. For courtesy lighting in corridors and companionways, use blue LEDs.
