The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Standard IEC 60092:2024 SER, published on January 8, 2018, is a comprehensive document designed to establish the safety and performance requirements for all electrical installations onboard ships. This standard covers a wide range of aspects related to shipboard electrical systems including but not limited to wiring arrangements, insulation types, grounding principles, protection against overcurrent and short circuits, as well as the selection criteria for electrical equipment suitable for maritime environments.
IEC 60092:2024 SER is intended to ensure that electrical installations on ships meet international safety standards. It serves as a reference document for designers, constructors, ship owners, operators, and classification societies involved in marine electrical engineering projects. The standard emphasizes the importance of reliable electrical systems in ensuring safe navigation and operation of vessels.
Furthermore, IEC 60092:2024 SER provides guidelines on how to conduct regular inspections and maintenance tasks to ensure the continuous safety and operational efficiency of shipboard electrical installations throughout their lifecycle. This includes requirements for testing and documentation procedures that help in identifying potential risks early before they can escalate into serious issues.
