Electrical and Power Systems
Electrical Repairs & Fault Finding
We identify and resolve electrical issues efficiently, including power loss, tripping breakers, voltage fluctuations, short circuits, insulation failures, grounding problems, overheating cables, corroded connections, and emergency electrical faults. Diagnosis is always aimed at identifying the true root cause, not applying temporary fixes.Power Systems Maintenance & Recovery
When electrical systems underperform or fail, we restore them to safe and reliable operation. This includes generator electrical repairs and control issues, battery bank testing and reconfiguration, troubleshooting of chargers, inverters, and power converters, as well as repairs to switchboards, panels, protection devices, and emergency backup systems.Cabling, Connections & Compliance
Many electrical problems originate from degraded wiring and poor terminations. We carry out targeted rewiring and cable repairs, termination and labeling cleanup, corrosion and moisture damage remediation, and electrical safety inspections required for surveys and insurance.Electronics & Navigation
We provide diagnosis, repair, calibration, and targeted upgrades of onboard electronics and navigation systems, with a primary focus on fault-finding and restoration of existing installations, rather than full system design.
Our work covers:
- Chartplotters, radars, GPS and AIS: troubleshooting signal loss, inaccuracies, software issues, and sensor integration problems
