This course offers a deeper look at some subjects from the Marine Electrical Certification course, such as alternative charging courses, AC power-conversion equipment, and galvanic isolation, as well as introducing the advanced topic of three-phase power distribution and the ever-advancing technology of electric propulsion. Information on troubleshooting and diagnosing issues with these systems is also discussed.
Diagnose electrical faults using systematic troubleshooting approaches in advanced diagnostic contextsConfigure and control electrical circuits by applying marine‑grade components, sensors, and monitors in vessel systemsImplement three‑phase power distribution with appropriate characteristics and properties in marine applicationsAnalyze and mitigate power anomalies through structured power‑quality investigations in onboard electrical systemsSet and verify voltage‑regulation parameters for AC generators and engine‑driven alternators in marine environmentsDeploy renewable DC charging sources and apply suitable voltage regulation in solar, wind, and hydrogenerator installationsDesign AC power‑conversion architectures and select components to provide isolation, conversion, and multi‑source paralleling for cogeneration aboard vesselsSpecify and install marine electric‑propulsion systems to meet performance and regulatory requirements in propulsion projectsInstall and operate advanced digital switching technology to expand control capabilities in marine electrical networksPrevent galvanic corrosion between vessels by implementing fail‑safe galvanic isolation in mooring or shore‑power scenarios
