A system for connecting an electrical power distribution of a ship to a shore side electrical power supply

摘要

A system for connecting an electrical power distribution system on a ship to a shore side electrical power supply 82, comprises two stackable shore power supply containers 14, 14' to be arranged on the ship. Each of them includes a shore power transfer cable 16, 16'. A switch panel 30 is contained in the shore power supply container 14, which forms a master shore power supply container 14. The other shore power supply container 14' forms a slave shore power supply container 14' that is connected to the switch panel 30 of the master shore power supply container 14. The master shore power supply container 14 is consequently capable of selectively receiving shore power either through its own shore power transfer cable 16 or through the slave shore power supply container 14' connected to its switch panel 30.
