Shore Power Supplies - Electrical, Lighting and Power

Shore power supplies provide dockside electrical power to vessels while main and auxiliary generators are stopped. Marine systems may supply low- or high-voltage power for hotel loads, cargo equipment, lighting, pumps, and onboard electrical distribution.

ProShipWorks provides end-to-end support to source and supply Shore Power Supplies for marine vessels, ship operators, industrial facilities, maintenance teams and procurement departments.

Standards, Certifications & Class Approval

Review the available standards and approval information relevant to the product. Actual certification, material traceability, inspection and classification requirements depend on the product type, intended application and purchasing specification.

Applicable Standards & Certification IEC/IEEE 80005-1 applies to high-voltage shore connection systems. IEC 80005-3 applies to low-voltage shore connection systems. Relevant marine electrical requirements may also include IEC 60092 series and port-specific electrical regulations.
Class Approval Approval is project- and vessel-specific and may be provided by DNV, ABS, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas, or ClassNK when specified in the design approval and installation certification.

Installation, Maintenance & Safety Information

Installation Notes Verify vessel voltage, frequency, phase sequence, rated current, earthing arrangement, connector type, and short-circuit level before installation. Installation should follow the approved vessel electrical drawings, manufacturer instructions, port requirements, and applicable IEC/IEEE standards.
Maintenance Tips Inspect cables, plugs, sockets, cable reels, interlocks, earthing connections, cooling systems, and protective devices. Perform insulation resistance, continuity, functional interlock, and protection tests at intervals specified by the manufacturer and vessel maintenance system.
Safety Notes Only qualified marine electrical personnel should operate or maintain the system. Isolate, lock out, and prove dead before work. High-voltage shore connections require approved switching procedures, protective equipment, earthing, interlocks, and arc-flash precautions.
