Warning!. This course requires the course of Basic Electricity MTT 1400 as a Prerequisite
In this course, we are going to study all the aspects related to AC current for medium and Mega-Yachts
We are going to start with the sources of AC current, The study of the frequency (50 & 60 Hz), the amplitude, The wire color codes for American and European boats, and The wiring of the AC panels for single, double, and three phases, The bonding and lightning protection, AC and DC Motors, Transformers, The most complete study of marine generators, The process to size and configure marine inverters, Solar and wind power systems and finally how to convert Gas and diesel engines into Hybrid Boats.
