Handbook to IEEE Standard 45 A Guide to Electrical Installations on Shipboard [Paperback]

IEEE 45™-2002 is an excellent standard, which is widely used for selecting shipboard electrical and electronic system equipment and its installation. The standard is a living document often interpreted differently by different users. Handbook to IEEE Standard 45™: A Guide to Electrical Installations on Shipboard provides a detailed background of the changes in IEEE Std 45-2002 and the reasoning behind the changes as well as explanation and adoption of other national and international standards. It contains the complete text of IEEE 45™-2002 relevant clauses, along with explanatory commentary consisting of: - Recommendation intent and interpretation - Historical perspective - Application - Supporting illustrations, drawings and tables This Handbook provides necessary technical details in a simplified form to enhance understanding of the requirements for technical and non-technical people in the maritime industry.
