ISO 16315:2016(E)
Introduction
Electrical propulsion systems are becoming more common in recreational craft and other small craft
and propulsion system voltages of up to AC 1 000 V and DC 1 500 V are possible together with variable
speed drives operating at frequencies which differ from 50/60 Hz or DC.
Electric propulsion systems for small craft are generally designed and constructed from a number of
component parts many of which can be of proprietary origin and all of the electrical and control items
are interconnected by cables and operated as a system.
There are a significant number of electrical propulsion system architectures for small craft and the
main types are the following.
— DC sourced. The main power source is a propulsion battery which is either recharged from on-
board DC generators, or on-board AC generators/an AC shore supply through battery chargers. The
electric propulsion system(s) may be variable speed through a DC motor controller or AC through a
Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) or be fixed speed with a variable pitch propeller or other mechanical
means of providing thrust. The electric propulsion system may be electrically separate from other
electrical systems on board (e.g. be fully insulated via the motor controller, or be an AC IT system via
a VFD or motor starter). Or the electrical propulsion system may be integrated with the whole craft
DC electrical system using converters DC/DC, DC/AC to provide for different services/consumers.
— AC sourced. The main power source is AC generator(s) generally configured as TT, TN-C or TN-S.
The electric propulsion system(s) may be DC variable speed through a AC/DC converter and DC
motor controller, or AC through a VFD, or be fixed speed with a variable pitch propeller or other
mechanical means of providing thrust. The electric propulsion system may be DC fully insulated
system or be an AC IT system via a galvanically isolated VFD or via an isolating transformer. A DC
propulsion system(s) may be supported by propulsion battery.
— Also possible are hybrid systems similar to the types being introduced for road vehicles where the
source is an internal combustion engine providing, for example, energy to a relatively lightweight
energy storage system with power take-off via converters to propulsion motor(s) and other electrical
consumers.
It is essential that the electric propulsion system designer/installer be competent with all aspects
of the equipment included in the design of a particular system such that the component parts of the
propulsion system are integrated in a coherent and safe manner.
Current electrical standards for small craft of less than 24 m LH are the following:
a) ISO 10133 which is limited to recommendation for the design, construction and installation of
direct current systems that operate at a voltage of DC 50 V or less; and
b) ISO 13297 which is limited to single phase alternating current electrical systems less than AC 250 V.
Neither of these standards includes requirements for electrical propulsion systems.
c) IEC 60092-507 is applicable to small craft up to 50 m/500 GT and includes requirements for three-
phase systems not exceeding AC 500 V and single-phase systems not exceeding AC 250 V and for
DC systems and sub-systems not exceeding DC 50 V nominal, and includes a section on electric
propulsion systems.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
safety voltage
voltage which does not exceed AC 50 V r.m.s. between conductors, or between any conductor and
earth, in a circuit isolated from the supply by means such as a safety isolating transformer, or converter
with separate winding
voltage which does not exceed 50 DC V between conductors, or between any conductor and earth,
in a circuit which is isolated from higher voltage circuits
Note 1 to entry: Consideration should be given to the reduction of the limit of 50 V under certain conditions, such
as wet surroundings or exposure to heavy seas or where direct contact with live parts is involved.

4 General requirements
4.1 General
Electric propulsion systems for small craft are generally designed and constructed from a number of
component parts many of which can be of proprietary origin and all of the electrical and control items
are interconnected by cables and operated as a system.
It is essential that the propulsion system designer/installer shall be competent with all aspects of the
equipment included in the design of a particular system such that the component parts of the propulsion
system are integrated in a coherent and safe manner.
The rated power output of each electric propulsion system at the motor shaft shall be designed to match
the propeller characteristics and the required rotational speed range or thrust range of variable pitch
propellers/thrusters.
The electric propulsion system may be electrically separate from other electrical systems on board a
small craft.
Different types of AC electrical system include four-wire with neutral earthed, but without hull return
(TN-C), five-wire with neutral earthed, but without hull return (TN-S), and IT systems with their
particular requirements for earth leakage current monitoring, alarm and tripping systems.
DC systems may be either earthed, or be fully insulated with particular requirements for insulation
resistance monitoring, alarm and tripping systems. For DC propulsion systems operating at voltages
greater than safety voltage, a three-wire system (e.g. DC +48 V/0/−48V) may be considered with the
mid-point conductor earthed to limit prospective touch voltage.
For DC electric propulsion systems and other electrical systems with rated nominal voltages in excess
of safety voltage, the precautions against the risk of electric shock shall be observed.
DC electric propulsion systems may have large capacity battery bank(s) or pack(s) as the main power
source, and particular attention is required for the following:
a) ventilation requirements necessary for battery bank or battery pack compartments;
b) requirements for an overcurrent device and an isolation switch for each propulsion battery bank or
battery pack;
c) circuit protection requirements for permanently energised circuits supplied from a battery bank
or battery pack.
Electric propulsion circuits shall be designed to protect against the following:
— fire by the use of overcurrent protection, grounding/earthing, terminal protection and conductor
type and size;
— shock by the use of enclosures, conductor and terminal insulation, automatic disconnection and
grounding/earthing system protection as appropriate.
ISO 16315:2016(E)
Electric propulsion circuits shall not interact with other circuits in such a way that circuits would fail to
operate as intended.
4.2 Components of an electric propulsion system
The electric propulsion system may include several sub-systems and components including, but not
limited to, the following:
— batteries;
— battery management systems;
— AC or DC generators;
— AC/DC, DC/DC, DC/AC, AC/AC converters, Variable Frequency Drives;
— electric propulsion motors;
— propulsion panel board;
— propulsion motor controls, monitoring, system alerts and trip alarms;
— transformers;
— conductors and cables;
— isolation switches (disconnectors), circuit breakers, contactors, fuses.
Each of these propulsion system components shall conform to the relevant ISO/IEC standard.
4.3 Electric propulsion systems
4.3.1 An electrical propulsion system may be
a) DC, sourced from battery(s) or DC generator(s) or AC/DC converters from an AC source, or
b) AC, sourced from alternator(s) or a DC/AC converter from a DC source [e.g. battery(s)].
The energy source(s) of an electric propulsion system may be reserved for this purpose and be
electrically separate from other electrical systems on board a craft, or all electrical systems on board
a craft may be directly connected to a common source but propulsion system(s) may have specific
requirements for electrical separation, earthing/bonding, conductor installation, etc. from the other
items of electrical equipment and circuits included in the overall design.
The rated voltage of an electric propulsion may be different from other electrical systems on-board a
craft and uses either AC or DC systems.
— For an AC propulsion system, it may be at variable frequency.
— For a DC propulsion system sourced from an AC system, the DC electrical propulsion system may
be obtained from an AC/DC converter with galvanic separation between input and output and
appropriate arrangements made at the output for fully insulated or negative earth propulsion
systems. Similarly, an earthed two wires propulsion system may be supplied from an insulated two
wires source via a DC/DC converter with galvanic separation and vice versa.
— For a DC propulsion system sourced from a DC system, the source shall have the same characteristics.
Systems may require attention to the treatment of the neutral earth, and also have specific
requirements in respect of earthing and bonding relative to the requirements of other electrical
systems on-board a craft.

ISO 16315:2016(E)
4.3.2 A DC electrical propulsion system may be configured as
a) fully insulated two-wire system (IT) or
b) two-wire system with negative earth/bonded (TN-S, TN-C, TN-C-S).
4.3.3 A single-phase AC electrical propulsion system may be configured as
a) single-phase two wire insulated (IT), or
b) single-phase two-wire with earthed neutral (TT or TN-C without hull return); or TT (when shore
connected), or
c) single-phase three-wire with mid-point earthed, both neutral and protective conductor (PE)
earthed at the energy source without hull return (TN-S).
4.3.4 A three-phase electrical propulsion system may be configured as
a) three-phase three-wire insulated (IT), or
b) three-phase four-wire with earthed neutral (TT or TN-C without hull return); or TT (when shore
connected), or
c) three-phase five-wire with mid-point earthed, both neutral and protective conductor (PE) earthed
at the energy source without hull return (TN-S).
If the AC propulsion system is required to be an IT from a TN source (or vice-versa), then an isolation
transformer conforming to IEC 61558-2-4 (U up to AC 1 100 V, maximum rated output 25 kVA for
single phase, 40 kVA for three-phase) may be used providing galvanic separation between primary and
secondary windings with appropriate arrangements

Introduction
Electrical propulsion systems are becoming more common in recreational craft and other small craft
and propulsion system voltages of up to AC 1 000 V and DC 1 500 V are possible together with variable
speed drives operating at frequencies which differ from 50/60 Hz or DC.
Electric propulsion systems for small craft are generally designed and constructed from a number of
component parts many of which can be of proprietary origin and all of the electrical and control items
are interconnected by cables and operated as a system.
There are a significant number of electrical propulsion system architectures for small craft and the
main types are the following.
— DC sourced. The main power source is a propulsion battery which is either recharged from on-
board DC generators, or on-board AC generators/an AC shore supply through battery chargers. The
electric propulsion system(s) may be variable speed through a DC motor controller or AC through a
Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) or be fixed speed with a variable pitch propeller or other mechanical
means of providing thrust. The electric propulsion system may be electrically separate from other
electrical systems on board (e.g. be fully insulated via the motor controller, or be an AC IT system via
a VFD or motor starter). Or the electrical propulsion system may be integrated with the whole craft
DC electrical system using converters DC/DC, DC/AC to provide for different services/consumers.
— AC sourced. The main power source is AC generator(s) generally configured as TT, TN-C or TN-S.
The electric propulsion system(s) may be DC variable speed through a AC/DC converter and DC
motor controller, or AC through a VFD, or be fixed speed with a variable pitch propeller or other
mechanical means of providing thrust. The electric propulsion system may be DC fully insulated
system or be an AC IT system via a galvanically isolated VFD or via an isolating transformer. A DC
propulsion system(s) may be supported by propulsion battery.
— Also possible are hybrid systems similar to the types being introduced for road vehicles where the
source is an internal combustion engine providing, for example, energy to a relatively lightweight
energy storage system with power take-off via converters to propulsion motor(s) and other electrical
consumers.
It is essential that the electric propulsion system designer/installer be competent with all aspects
of the equipment included in the design of a particular system such that the component parts of the
propulsion system are integrated in a coherent and safe manner.
Current electrical standards for small craft of less than 24 m LH are the following:
a) ISO 10133 which is limited to recommendation for the design, construction and installation of
direct current systems that operate at a voltage of DC 50 V or less; and
b) ISO 13297 which is limited to single phase alternating current electrical systems less than AC
250 V.
Neither of these standards includes requirements for electrical propulsion systems.
c) IEC 60092-507 is applicable to small craft up to 50 m/500 GT and includes requirements for three-
phase systems not exceeding AC 500 V and single-phase systems not exceeding AC 250 V and for
DC systems and sub-systems not exceeding DC 50 V nominal, and includes a section on electric
propulsion systems.
