Description / Abstract:
This document provides recommendations for systems engineering,
design, and integration of electrical power systems at the total
ship level from concept design through the establishment of the
design baseline prior to detail design.
Recommendations for ac power systems, dc power systems,
emergency power systems, shore power, quality of service (QoS),
power quality and harmonics, electric propulsion and maneuvering
systems, motors and drives, thrusters, and steering systems onboard
ships are established by this document. These recommendations
reflect present-day technologies, engineering methods, and
engineering practices. This document is intended to be used in
conjunction with the IEEE 45™ series of documents.
Purpose
IEEE Std 45.3™ provides a consensus of recommended practices for
systems engineering and integration of electrical power systems as
applied specifically to ships, shipboard systems, and equipment.
IEEE Std 45.3 applies primarily to the design of moderately and
highly complex vessels. Designers of less complex vessels should
selectively apply these recommended practices to address specific
systems engineering challenges.
