PAUL
What type of electrical equipment used in cargo
pump room. What do you mean by intrinsically
safe equipment.

What's the criteria for a ships electrical cable?(not


about insulation class)
=======================================
1. How will you try out emergency generator from
ECR?
Using tie breaker
Where is it located, what will happen when tie
breaker is operated?
In main switch board, msb supply will be cut off
and esb supply will be on. ( Change over takes
place)
How will you test it?
I said emergency generator on load indication will
be available on the msb, also during change over
light flickering will happen.
He didn't accept that, i don't know more about
that answer.
2. Is there any additional safety arrangements in
msb?
I said, circuit breakers, relays , trips etc.
He didn't accept that too
3. How many terminals on induction motor.
=========================================
Motor terminals
Jacket water control(not accepting pid control)
Boiler water level control
Iccp,name of layer formed
