Marine Electrical Practice: 5th Edition discusses the subject of marine electrical practice and takes into consideration the revolutionary changes in the field over the past 20 years. The book covers components such as generators, switchgears, rotary amplifiers, and voltage regulators; the insulation and temperature control of different machines; the distribution of electrical power; electromagnetic compatibility; and lighting. The book also contains helpful reference materials such as graphical symbols related to ship diagrams, organizations concerned with ships and shipbuilding, and units of measurement. The text is useful for nautical engineers and electrical engineers involved in offshore work, as it serves as both a guide and an update in the field of marine electrical practice.

Marine Engineering Series: Marine Electrical Practice, Sixth Edition focuses on changes in the marine industry, including the application of programmable electronic systems, generators, and motors. The publication first ponders on insulation and temperature ratings of equipment, protection and discrimination, and AC generators. Discussions focus on construction, shaft-drive generators, effect of unbalanced loading, subtransient and transient reactance, protection discrimination, fault current, measurement of ambient air temperature, and basis of machine ratings. The text then examines AC switchgear, automatic voltage regulators, DC generators, and DC switchgear. Topics cover switchgear for parallel-operated generators, protection against short-circuit, field regulators and the effect of tropical temperatures, compound-wound generators, power generators, loading sharing, voltage comparison circuit, and amplifier and condition circuit. The manuscript surveys electric cables, motors, motor control gear, semiconductors, storage batteries, and battery control gear. Concerns include calculations to determine the size of battery required, types of storage batteries, rectifiers, tunnel diodes, maintenance of control gear, overload protection, insulation, sheathing, and flexible cords and cables. The publication is a dependable reference for marine engineers and researchers interested in marine engineering.

Updated with the 2000 rules, the Fourth Edition provides shipyard electricians and electrical designers with the step-by-step instruction they need to design and install electrical systems on marine installations, whether shipboard or offshore. Written for novices, this workbook offers three modules of skill level: Fundamentals, Intermediate, and Advanced. Within each module, the author provides five lessons filled with detailed outlines, diagrams, charts, formulas, examples, solutions, blank worksheets, and study guides for increased understanding. Suitable for use as either a course text or as a self-help guide, this workbook examines current rules and regulations of the American Bureau of Shipping, United States Coast Guard, National Electronic Code, and Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers 45. Using this information, readers will acquire a basic knowledge of task requirements, including basic ship construction as well as power-and-lighting-system building and installation. Featuring the editorial revisions of the "ABS Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels," this edition addresses changes made to the American Bureau of Shipping's (ABS) rules, including the re-numbering and re-organization of all section numbers. For ease-of-reference, the author includes a chart of both the new ABS rules and the old ABS rules used throughout the workbook.
