accordance with recommended practices.

COMMON POWER BUS ASSURANCE - IMCA INFORMATION NOTE
The common bus configuration should offer equivalent dependability to
a more conventional separated power distribution arrangement
How is this established?
IMCA neither advocates nor precludes any method of establishing this
dependability
The method needs to be suitable and sufficient

COMMON POWER BUS
• Run fewer engines
• Engines may operate closer to optimum efficiency reducing fuel use and emissions
• Less engine maintenance (from running fewer engines, less low load operation)
• Potentially more flexibility for performing system maintenance (this may be especially attractive for MODUs)
• The redundancy concept is complex
• Potentially vulnerable to poor commissioning, verification and testing
• Potentially vulnerable to hidden failures and design flaws
• Costs of system design and verification/approval

IMCA INFORMATION NOTE
• Does not provide, or recommend a prescriptive solution
• Recommends certain considerations which operators should consider and
considers possibilities
• Recognises the advantages of common power bus arrangements whilst also
drawing attention to the difficulties of assurance for such arrangements
• Recommends a goal based approach and calls for further work and
collaboration between interested parties (operators, designers, class, learned
bodies) to develop suitable assurance tools and methods
