House Battery Charging Issue


Hey Folks I hope you can help with this one.
I have discovered that my house battery is not charging while underway. I checked and the alternators are working. The starting batteries are charging but for some reason the charge is not making its way to the house. The house battery does in fact charge when plugged in dockside electric. All wires seem tight.
One question is how is the battery wired so that only the house battery will discharge for d/c demand while the starting batteries do not discharge, yet is able to accept alternator charging.
I there some solenoid or switch that can be defective?
Any thoughts and insight are much appreciated. Thanks.
