Plugs, socket-outlets and ship couplers for high-voltage shore connection systems (HVSC-SYSTEMS) – Part 2: Dimensional compatibility and interchangeability requirements for accessories to be used by various types of ships - Edition 1.0
 N 62613-2

INTRODUCTION

International Standard series IEC 62613 has been primarily written to address the needs in terms of plugs, socket-outlets and ship couplers (ship connectors and ship inlets), herein referred to as "accessories", of IEC/PAS 60092-510. The purpose of IEC/PAS 60092-510 is to define requirements that allow compliant ships to connect to compliant high-voltage shore power supplies through standardized shore-to-ship connection accessories.

Ships that do not require connecting with standardized high-voltage shore power supplies as above may use accessories that are not covered by the standard sheets of IEC 62613-2 but they may find it impossible to connect to these shore supplies.

Other low voltage plugs, socket-outlets, ship connectors and ship inlets used for the connection of certain ship types to low-voltage shore power supplies may be found in the IEC 60309 series.

The IEC 62613 series is divided into several parts:

– Part 1: General requirements, comprising clauses of a general character;

– Part 2: Dimensional compatibility and interchangeability requirements for accessories to be used by various types of ships.

These ships are described in IEC/PAS 60092-510.
