LOAD MANAGEMENT
ASEA Power Systems' shore power converters now provide a comprehensive Load Management
System. Additionally, paralleled shore power converters now provide a Load Sharing system that
manages the use of different capacity shore cords. The various features are discussed in detail
below.
Shore Cord Alarm
The Shore Cord Alarm drives the Voltage Droop and Automatic Transfer to Generator features of
the Load Management System. The user selects a percentage between 50% and 100% at which to
begin alarming. This feature may be enabled or disabled by the user.
Shore Cord Setup
The actual shore cord amperage is selected by the user from a table of available, international shore
cord sizes. This selection causes the converter to now display load level and alarm based on the
true available shore cord energy. The new, actual converter capacity (if less than the converter’s
capacity) is displayed for reference.
