Semiconductor Device Standards also cover devices outside of those large series. Smaller IEC series and those from other standards developing organizations provide further information about other devices using semiconductors, such as HVDC systems, switchgear/controlgear, X-ray machines, fiber optics, and others.

IEC/PAS 80005-3 Ed. 1.0 en:2014

Utility connections in port - Part 3: Low Voltage Shore Connection (LVSC) Systems - General requirements

IEC PAS 80005-3:2014(E) describes low voltage shore connection (LVSC) systems, on board the ship and on shore, to supply the ship with electrical power from shore. This PAS is applicable to the design, installation and testing of LVSC systems and addresses: - LV shore distribution systems; - shore-to-ship connection and interface equipment; - transformers/reactors; - semiconductor/rotating convertors; - ship distribution systems; and - control, monitoring, interlocking and power management systems. It does not apply to the electrical power supply during docking periods, e.g. dry docking and other out-of-service maintenance and repair. It is expected that LVSC systems will have practicable applications for ships requiring up to 1 MVA. Low-voltage shore connection systems not exceeding 250 A, with a maximum of 125 A per cable and not exceeding 300 V to earth are not covered by this PAS. High-voltage shore connection systems are covered by IEC/ISO/IEEE 80005-1.

IEC 60092-501 Ed. 5.0 en:2013

Electrical installations in ships Part 501 Special features Electric propulsion plant

IEC 60092-501:2013(E) specifies requirements for all electric propulsion plants and gives the specifications, system design, installation and testing of at least: - generators and their prime movers; - switchboards; - transformers/reactors; - semiconductor convertors; - propulsion motors; - excitation systems; - control, monitoring and safety systems; - wires, cables, busbars, trunking systems; - harmonic filters. Bow and stern thrusters intended as auxiliary steering devices, booster and take-home devices, all auxiliary generating plants, and accumulator battery powered propulsion machinery and equipment are excluded. This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition published in 2007. It constitutes a technical revision. This edition included the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) requirements regarding system responsibility, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), harmonic distortion and filtering, special requirements for ships with propulsion motor(s) and podded drives, and power management system (PMS); b) overall technical review to update the standard according to general requirements and referenced equipment standards.

IEC/IEEE 80005-1 Ed. 2.0 en:2019

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

IEC/IEEE 80005-1:2019 is available as IEC/IEEE 80005-1:2019 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.

IEC/IEEE 80005-1:2019 describes high-voltage shore connection (HVSC) systems, onboard the ship and on shore, to supply the ship with electrical power from shore. This document is applicable to the design, installation and testing of HVSC systems and addresses:
 - HV shore distribution systems,
 - shore-to-ship connection and interface equipment,
 - transformers/reactors,
 - semiconductor/rotating frequency convertors,
 - ship distribution systems, and
 - control, monitoring, interlocking and power management systems.
 It does not apply to the electrical power supply during docking periods, for example dry docking and other out of service maintenance and repair. Additional and/or alternative requirements can be imposed by national administrations or the authorities within whose jurisdiction the ship is intended to operate and/or by the owners or authorities responsible for a shore supply or distribution system. It is expected that HVSC systems will have practicable applications for ships requiring 1 MVA or more or ships with HV main supply. Low-voltage shore connection systems are not covered by this document. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2012. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
 a) modification of 4.1, Figure 1: transformer on ship is optional, earthing switches on ship removed;
 b) 4.2.2 and new item 11.3: alternative procedure of periodic testing added;
 c) modification of 4.9:
 - minimum current value in the safety circuits shall be 50 mA;
 - opening of safety loop shall cause the automatic opening of ship and shore HVSC circuit breakers in a maximum time of 200 ms;
 d) modification of 5.2: added Figure on harmonic contents;
 e) modification of 6.2.3:
 – earthing transformer with resistor can be used also on the secondary side;
 – neutral earthing resistor rating in amperes shall be minimum 25 A, 5 s;
 f) modification of all annexes: the safety circuits shall be mandatory;
 g) modification of A.2.1: a metallic shield shall be installed at least on the power cores or common on pilot wires;
 h) modification of B.7.2.1: new safety circuit introduced: single line diagram and description;
 i) modification of C.4.1: SLD for cruise ships was updated, also the safety circuits to be coherent with main body, IEC symbols and introduced more details about the control socket-outlets and plugs manufacturer type;
 j) modification of C.7.3.1:
 - shore power connector pin assignment is updated;
 - all cruise ships shall use 4 cables in all cases;
 k) added D.6.1: the supply point on shore can be fixed or movable;
 l) modification of D.7.3.2: the voltage used in the pilot circuit for container ships shall be less than 60 V DC or 25 V AC.
 m) added D.8.6 and D.9.3.1: automatic restart and synchronization alternatives;
 n) Annex E set to informative;
 o) Annex F set to informative.
