Typical power system architecture for a large cruise ship with integratedelectrical propulsion. The main generators power the propulsion motors and all service loads from one main... Read more
Not all loads are turned on at all times, and many come one after another, each for a short duration of time in a set sequence. Therefore, the required generator capacity in kW is... Read more
Power factor is the ratio of the true power (voltamperes) to apparent power (watts), and it depends on the phase difference between current and voltage. Three-phase power factor me... Read more
The megohmmeter (commonly called a megger in the field) is used to measure the resistance of insulation in megohms (thousands of ohms). Test results indicate the presence of... Read more
