Does any of yous guy know of, a website , book etc that focuses on specifically marine electrical systems, in the magnitude of 13.8kV supply.Also will i'm at it do any of the experts possess any information regarding the protection of these systems, as the web is giving me no help at all.

Many Thanks!

For 'pavement' (Electrical) on his msg. Sept. 10, 2003

Marine Electrical Systems:

Medium Voltage 13.8 kV: No help from the WEB.
First of all, I haven't seen whether you posted this query as well in the more appropriate group Electrical / Electronic Engineers.
On Sept. 19th. from among others "Alfminator" and (21st.) "Modula2" and others; they replied also to a 13.8kV Generator / System Grounding subject.
Nowadays one can seldom say that the WEB does not contain any help.
Try among others:

Definitely one link may help you further:
One IEEE member to send an E-mail to, might help: daveges01@aol.com
Marine Engineering: Mr. David Moore in Canada.
Yet another specialist: http://www.msegroup.net/prod-fs.htm
They have a nice .ppt site for the 'protection'-part of your query:
http://www.msegroup.net/Failsafe.ppt with a few slides.
(Please note that if you make a direct link to this .ppt file, you will be asked to log in with an ID; just cancel twice and wait for the actual .ppt downloading).
Since you mentioned the MARINE, please scroll down till "Electric Ships" in:
http://www.pscad.com/Showcase/Studies1.h...
Lessons learned (power failure) (US Merchant Marine Academy)
And if this isn't enough:
http://www.neiengineering.com/papers/pep... as a last link, since I don't like .pdf so much because of the "One Time Only" attitude of my PC.
A second .pdf will stall after downloading (all the wait included) (Acrobat Reader ver. 6)

Kind regards;

RE: Marine elctrical systems

There is a good website to get you started run by a guy named John Payne. The website is:
  www.marineelectrics.org/index.html

By the way, do you mean a 13.8 KW as a generator?

RE: Marine elctrical systems

Have you consulted the following texts that cover the subject:
"Marine Engineering" published by the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineering

"Modern Marine Engineers Manual" published by Cornell Maritime Press
