Generator Overhauling

D’Carb or major overhauling of a ship’s generator is an important and complicated task requiring professional skills, knowledge, and experience. As an engineer onboard ships, you will be required to carry out the generator overhauling during routine maintenance or in case of an emergency situation. Thorough knowledge of the generator D’carb procedure is, therefore, a must for engineers of all levels working on ships. A thorough knowledge of the causes of generator failure (both mechanical as well as electrical) is necessary to avoid blackout incidents on board. Generator failures can lead to catastrophic consequences, if not addressed in time. This is a valuable course for all engineers to understand the causes of gen malfunctioning and identification of faults and rectification.
