Problem •Loose connections on the steering gear position transmitter caused a failure of the control system and loss of steering, leading to collision.
•Loose parts of a switch fuse became detached, fell onto bus-bars causing an arc which resulted in a main switchboard fire, complete loss of electrical power and propulsion.
• A switchboard fire on a tanker caused by overheating of loose contacts on a motor starter
•To identify potential overheating of electrical equipment, owners are advised to use ‘thermal-imaging techniques as a means of verifying the security of electrical connections and pin point problem areas at an early stage.
Summary
This Marine Guidance Notice is to draw attention to incidents involving electrical equipment,maintenance responsibilities and the use of thermographic imaging as a maintenance tool.

Insurance viewpoint
P & I Claims
The issue of seafarer shortage and of quality of sea staff continues to be a major worry. There are significant concerns that in some cases, crews today appears to be less well trained, & less experienced.
Recently seen a number of incidents where incompetence / negligence has led to disaster. Most of the claims, that we handle on behalf of members, have the same factor at their root – human error.
Improved training, more respect for seafaring as a career, are some of the issues which need to be addressed.
Despite the recession, there is certainly no oversupply of experienced crews – and there is still a tendency for people to be promoted very quickly.
Loss Prevention
The key to best practice in loss prevention is to base the process of risk assessment on good quality information
