Maritime Switchboards

Advanced tailor-made maritime switchboards for safe, seamless electricity distribution in challenging conditions.

Elpro is an experienced and flexible supplier of maritime switchboard solutions with an extensive project track record for cruise ships, ferries, service vessels, barges, rigs and the offshore maritime ﬂeet . We design and build advanced, modern switchboards for all types of vessels, onshore and offshore structures – and guarantee maximum utilisation and management of all electrical power on board.

Future proof maritime switchboards

To meet the wide range of functional and technical requirement and ensure the highest standard of quality and ﬂexibility, all our maritime switchboards are engineered, designed and manufactured by our experienced engineers and installers at the Elpro factory in Selva, Norway. Our enclosures of the switchboards are cut, bended, powder coated and assembled at our factory. The bus bar copper is also bended in-house, to ensure high quality and ﬂexibility at a competitive price and delivery time. Our own switchboard design has been continuously developed for over four decades.

Close cooperation with our clients and systems integrators

We define specifications in close cooperation with our customers and handle the project management from A-Z . Feedback from fitters and personell on board the wessels we have equipped is valuable, enabling us to identify and implement improvements and upgrades. With the customer’s valuable feedback, we can maintain our position at the leading edge of this demanding technology.

Optional features

Closed ring system that satisﬁes the highest DP requirements.
Directional protection and zone selectivity, which allows minimum loss of bus bar sections even for a worst-case single fault on a vessel with ERN 4×99, running with closed bus ties.
Power Management System (PMS) can be included in the switchboard (which saves yard for a lot of cabling and potential fault ﬁnding in the future).
Load Sharing (LS) can be included in the switchboard without taking any extra space on each generator cubicle (symmetric, ﬁxed power, asymmetric).
AVR’s can be mounted in each generator cubicle for easier fault ﬁnding and commissioning.
Ultra Rapid breaker (UR breaker) can be mounted into our switchboard to allow higher installed power running in parallel @690V, and to limit the short circuit level to 100kA/220kA peak.
