MARINE ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT & PRACTICE

The original intention of the author of this brilliant publication was to provide readers with the detailed descriptions of the various electrical equipment installed on board modern vessels, together with the explanation of their working principles. The volume will be a great tool for preparation to the exams and as such has gained so much of popularity amongst the students in different parts of the world.

This is the second edition of the book, featuring significantly reworked and updated content that would be appreciated by those willing to gain or improve technical knowledge in the field. There are several newly included chapters dealing with the shipboard shaft generators and also electric ship propulsion, reflecting the modern trends. The author has also included numerous informative data diagrams depicting the electrical distribution and control arrangements.

In addition to that, serious attention was paid to the safety when using the shipboard electrical equipment and systems. Every effort was made to avoid using too technical language; also, the supplementary materials, such as the diagrams, tables, and sketches, were made as simple as possible, in order to ensure easier understanding and reader-friendliness.
