Commercial shipping & industrial marine electrical engineering
Fifteen years of ocean-going tanker engineering applied to merchant vessels, workboats and charter fleets — low-voltage diagnostics, engine-room automation and switchboard maintenance.
Main switchboards & power management
High-load distribution is where a small fault becomes a blackout. Boards are inspected, tested and torqued to spec, with readings recorded so the next survey has a baseline to compare against.
- High-load circuit breaker service
- Generator synchronising panels
- Emergency power supply testing
- Insulation resistance & thermography
- Busbar torque & connection audit
- Shore connection and changeover
Automation & control systems
Fault-finding and maintenance on engine-room monitoring and alarm systems. Loops are traced end to end — sensor, wiring, module — before any board is condemned.
- Alarm & monitoring loop fault-finding
- PLC and I/O module replacement
- Sensor & transmitter calibration
- Engine-room monitoring networks
- Pump & compressor starter logic
- As-built drawing updates
Pneumatic & hydraulic control circuits
Deck machinery and cargo systems fail on their electrical side far more often than mechanically. Solenoids, limit switches and interlocks are tested under working pressure.
- Electro-pneumatic actuator service
- Cargo winch electrical systems
- Hydraulic mooring & winch wiring
- Solenoid valve & limit switch faults
- Deck machinery control circuits
- Interlock & safety circuit testing
Attendance documentation
Measured readings
Insulation resistance, load current, temperature and torque values, per circuit tested.
Photo record

Parts & work list
What was replaced, what was adjusted, what remains outstanding.
Recommendations
Defects found but not addressed, with a priority against the next docking.
