Where Projects Go Wrong And How We Handle It
Requirement Survey
Nobody has measured the simultaneous hotel load of the vessels that actually call
We work from the vessel classes and berth occupancy you give us and size against the peak case, not the average.
Electrical Design
Port harmonic limits and vessel earthing requirements pull in different directions
Rectifier topology is chosen per site, from 6 pulse to PWM, and the output is configured as an IT system with neutral insulation.
Housing Selection
There is often no substation space on the quay apron
Container type units are supplied as a complete IP65 air conditioned enclosure that lands ready to connect.
Manufacture
Large converters that are assembled on site are slow to fault find
The rectifier, inverter, transformer and sine filter are integrated and wired in our plant.
Factory Test
Faults found on the quay cost far more than faults found in the factory
Withstand voltage, insulation resistance and protection trip values are all verified before dispatch.
Commissioning Support
Local contractors need the trip settings and sequencing explained
Protection values are set on the 10.4 inch touch screen and handed over with the unit.

FAQ
Questions Buyers Ask
How long does a shore power converter take to build?
Lead time depends on rating and housing type. Send the berth load and vessel details and we will confirm against the current build slot.
Do you supply the quayside cable management?
We supply the conversion equipment. Cable reels and connection boxes are specified by the terminal contractor.
