Introduction

Inland navigation vessels are equipped with a variety of electrical loads operating at 230 V or 400 V While underway, continuous electrical power supply is provided by the onboard system from generators driven by diesel engines When the vessel is berthed, these generators have to remain in operation if there is no suitable onshore power supply available In some cases, this leads to intense noise pollution both for the crew on the vessel itself and on other vessels lying alongside and also for residents ashore The exhaust fumes are an additional pollution factor

The electrical shore connections specified in this standard make it possible to provide the vessels with an electrical power supply while berthed and to eliminate noise and exhaust pollution This calls for a uniform Europe-wide connection that can be activated and deactivated by the vessel's crew in all ports and berths, if possible, without requiring any assistance from shore-based personnel This standard contains electrical safety requirements for the prevention of hazards in making, using and breaking the shore connection

Furthermore, cashless settlement for the electricity used shall be possible, ideally a standard Europe-wide payment system

Electrical shore connections with a permissible current of over 63 A as used for passenger ships with a hotelling function are not covered by this standard

1 Scope

This European Standard specifies requirements applicable to equipment for shore-to-vessel supply of three-phase 400 V electrical power up to 63 A and a frequency of 50 Hz to berthed inland navigation vessels This part of the European Standard specifies safety requirements for the onshore unit of the electrical shore connection

This part of the European Standard applies only to the supply of inland navigation vessels in ports and berths for commercial shipping Supply stations for leisure craft and houseboats in marinas or similar locations have

to meet the requirements of IEC 60364-7-709

For low-voltage electrical installations, the requirements specified in the HD 60364 and HD 384 series are applicable generally The requirements in this part of EN 15869 supplement, amend or supersede some of the requirements in HD 60364/HD 384 Parts 1 to 6 Where no requirements are given in this part of EN 15869, the requirements specified in the HD 60364 and HD 384 are applicable; a detailed list is given in the Bibliography
