As the electrical and electronics systems on recreational vessels become more and more complex, the electrical technician must advance their knowledge base to keep pace with them. This course offers a deeper look at some subjects from the Marine Electrical Certification course, such as alternative charging courses, AC power-conversion equipment, and galvanic isolation, as well as introducing the advanced topic of three-phase power distribution and the ever-advancing technology of electric propulsion. Information on troubleshooting and diagnosing issues with these systems is also discussed.
