Utility connections in port – Part 1: High voltage shore connection (HVSC) systems – General requirements

2Scope / Description

This part of IEC/IEEE 80005 describes low voltage shore connection (LVSC) systems on board ships and shore for supplying electrical power to ships from shore. This standard applies to the design, installation and testing of LVSC systems and covers:
　——LV shore power distribution systems;
　——shore-to-ship connections and interface equipment;
　——transformers/reactors;
　——semiconductor/rotary converters;
　——ship power distribution systems;
　——protection, control, monitoring, interlocking and power management systems. Note: This standard does not apply to the supply of power during docking (e.g. dry docking and other outages for maintenance and repair). Additional and/or alternative requirements may be imposed by the State and/or the jurisdiction in which the ship operates or by the owner/manager of the shore power system. LVSC systems are expected to be suitable for ships requiring up to 1 MVA of electrical power while at berth. This standard covers low voltage shore power connection systems with a rated voltage exceeding 250 A and equal to or exceeding 400 V ac up to 1000 V ac. High voltage shore power connection systems are covered by part 1 of this standard. This standard does not cover marinas and marinas, or systems operated by ordinary personnel as defined by IEC 61439.
