  • Abstract
    THE COMPLETE electric system of a modern peacetime cargo vessel must comply with the rules of the United States Coast Guard Merchant Marine Inspection Service (formerly the Bureau of Marine Inspection and Navigation), the American Bureau of Shipping, AIEE Standard 45, and Senate Report 184. It also must meet the requirements of the United States Public Health Service in regard to ratproofing. The typical modern cargo vessel described in this article is a hypothetical turbine-propelled vessel of about 450 feet in length and 9,500 tons deadweight.
