IEEE developing new standards for shipboard installations

PISCATAWAY, NEW JERSEY - The IEEE has begun work to develop six new recommended practice standards for shipboard electrical installations.

The new standards will build upon, and are intended to be used in conjunction with, IEEE 45, "IEEE Recommended Practice for Electrical Installations on Shipboard." The standards projects will address new shipboard technologies and provide a consensus of recommended practices for design in marine electrical engineering as applied specifically to ships, shipboard systems, and equipment.

The new standards projects are:

IEEE P45.1, "Recommended Practice for Electrical Installations on Shipboard - Design"

IEEE P45.2, "Recommended Practice for Electrical Installations on Shipboard - Controls and Automation"

IEEE P45.3, "Recommended Practice for Electrical Installations on Shipboard - Systems Integration"

IEEE P45.4, "Recommended Practice for Electrical Installations on Shipboard - Marine Sectors and Mission Systems"

IEEE P45.5, "Recommended Practice for Electrical Installations on Shipboard - Safety Considerations"

IEEE P45.6, "Recommended Practice for Electrical Installations on Shipboard - Electrical Testing"

The standards are being developed by the IEEE Working Group for Electrical Installations on Shipboards, and sponsored by the IEEE Industry Applications Society's Petroleum & Chemical Industry Committee.

Ireland: We are the global leaders in taking renewables onto the grid

DUBLIN - Ireland is now able to cope with 65% of its electricity coming from intermittent electricity sources like wind and solar – an expertise Energy Minister Denish Naugthen believes can be replicated on a larger scale as Europe moves towards 50% renewable power by 2030.

Denis Naughten is an Irish politician who serves as Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment since May 2016.

Naughten spoke to editor Frédéric Simon on the sidelines of a EURACTIV event in the European  Parliament to mark the launch of EU-SysFlex, an EU-funded project, which aims to create a long-term roadmap for the large-scale integration…
