Electric & Electronic Repair & Service
As yachts age, so too do their electrical systems. This natural process often leads to reduced efficiency and an increasing number of electrical problems. Regular inspections and timely upgrades are therefore essential to maintain performance and safeguard reliability. If it has been years since your last major electrical update, your vessel may well be due for a comprehensive refit. Our engineers carefully evaluate and test all onboard systems, identifying emerging problems early and ensuring that the installation meets the latest safety standards.
Diagnostics: The first step towards reliable electrical systems is a thorough analysis. Using advanced diagnostic tools, our experts trace faults within circuits, identify irregularities, and determine the root cause of malfunctions. This detailed assessment ensures that repairs are not just temporary fixes but long-term solutions.
System Refits: For yachts requiring more than minor repairs, we offer complete electrical refits. This may include replacing outdated wiring, upgrading switchboards, or installing modern energy management systems. Every refit is tailored to the yacht’s individual requirements and carried out with precision to ensure lasting reliability.
Custom Design Solutions: Every vessel is unique, and so are its electrical demands. We design and implement bespoke solutions that address the specific needs of your yacht—whether that involves integrating new navigation systems, designing efficient lighting concepts, or adding custom-built control panels. These solutions not only enhance safety but also improve onboard comfort and usability.
Audio and Entertainment Systems: Comfort at sea is also defined by modern conveniences. We install and service high-quality audio, video, and entertainment systems that transform your time onboard into an enjoyable and luxurious experience. From discreet sound systems to integrated multimedia solutions, we ensure seamless functionality.
Ongoing Maintenance: Electrical systems require consistent care to remain safe and effective. Our service does not end with a single repair or installation. We offer scheduled maintenance programs that include inspections, performance checks, and preventive measures to protect your investment and guarantee trouble-free operation.
From replacing outdated wiring to integrating modern control systems, our specialists combine technical precision with practical experience. Every project is carried out with attention to detail, ensuring that the upgraded systems not only function flawlessly but also improve the overall comfort and safety of your yacht. With us, you can rely on customer-focused service, extensive expertise, and a commitment to delivering results that stand the test of time.
Electrical Survey Preparation Checklist
Before undergoing a class or insurance survey, it is crucial to ensure that all electrical systems are in optimal condition. Our preparation checklist helps yacht owners and captains verify that installations are safe, compliant, and ready for inspection:
- Cable Inspections: Check all visible wiring for signs of wear, chafing, corrosion, or overheating. Ensure that cable runs are properly secured and compliant with marine-grade insulation standards.
- Switchboards & Panels: Verify that main and sub-distribution boards are clearly labeled, free of moisture or corrosion, and equipped with the correct circuit breakers and fuses.
- Protection Devices: Test all RCDs/GFCIs and circuit breakers for correct trip function. Confirm that overload and short-circuit protection devices are properly rated for the circuits they protect.
- Batteries & Charging Systems: Perform a capacity and load test on service and starter batteries. Check electrolyte levels (if applicable), terminals, and ventilation. Verify correct operation of chargers, inverters, and alternators.
- Earthing & Bonding: Inspect earthing and bonding connections to ensure galvanic isolation and proper protection against stray currents. Confirm the continuity of bonding straps to metallic fittings.
- Shore Power: Test the shore power inlet, cabling, and converters. Ensure that polarity, frequency, and voltage checks are carried out and that isolation transformers or galvanic isolators are functioning correctly.
- Lighting & Emergency Systems: Confirm that navigation, interior, and emergency lighting circuits are operational. Verify that emergency lighting and backup battery supplies meet class or CE requirements.
- Diagnostics & Documentation: Carry out insulation resistance (megger) tests, harmonic distortion analysis, and thermal imaging surveys where required. Prepare documentation of tests and results for surveyor review.
By following this checklist and addressing potential issues in advance, owners can ensure a smooth, efficient survey process. Our team provides full pre-survey inspections and corrective services, guaranteeing that your yacht’s electrical systems meet all classification, CE, and insurance standards with confidence.
