@theangry_et: #work #bluecollar #electronics #electrician #TikTokLearningCampaign Ever wonder how ship's control the speed of their thruster motors? No? Well watch anyway. Maybe you'll learn something. This is one of our larger thruster drives or VFDs that allows us to finely control the speed of the large electric thruster motors, which in turn are how we keep the boat pointed where we want it. Mostly.
Whatever they’re paying you, it’s not enough. You have mastered at least three maybe four totally different segments. Combustion motors, plumbing, electrical motor control. Most people are happy having a full mastery of one and should be.

Get a longer Ethernet. It’s giving me anxiety.

They don’t care about working on it later. As long as it fits and works when they are done lol

when you pointed at the big ass capacitors and said “these aren’t what you think they are,” i was like “they aren’t capacitors? 😲”

I’m neither an electrician or an EE but have to work VFD’s. When a new guy asks how they work I give the same answer, “magic”. All they need to know is turn the dial this way and it goes faster, turn the dial the other way and it goes slower.

I love how these engineers constantly put water above lighting! They must have a reason but will never be good enough for me.😎

Love the content. What voltage does the DC run at if the AC is 690rms?

UK warships use the same engineering. 4160V ac 3ph through Supply Bridges to 5330V dc then IGBT gating to 15ph 20MW prop motors

do you sail with the ship or just service them when in port?

The timing of this is uncanny. I just had to whack mine with a wrench. Should probs get the new solenoids out of the box. 🤪
