| Visual inspection of cable and connector | before each shore connection use |
|---|---|
| Contact resistance/thermal check | annually or per maker recommendation |
| Interlock and safety sequence function test | annually |
| Insulation resistance test on shore cable | annually |
Typical intervals for this design class, not the manufacturer’s figures for your model. The manufacturer’s manual is binding.
| Contact pitting/wear | renew contacts when pitting or erosion is visible, or when contact resistance exceeds the maker's specified limit - no generic figure applies, refer to Cavotec maintenance documentation |
|---|---|
| Cable insulation resistance | compare against the commissioning baseline and the maker's minimum acceptable value; a significant downward trend indicates renewal is needed rather than a single absolute figure |
Ranges are typical for this design class. Always confirm against the manufacturer documentation for your serial number.
High-voltage shore connection systems built to the ISO/IEC/IEEE 80005 (Cold Ironing) series are subject to class rules for high-voltage shore connection, including interlock/safety sequence verification and earthing arrangement; survey typically checks documentation of the safety interlock function test and cable/connector condition.
Estimated lifetime: Rated by mating cycles and years in service rather than running hours; contacts and cable are the primary wear items, with the fixed installation typically expected to last many years with maintenance.
