Cable Intermediate Fusion Joints: The "Solid Bridge" of Power Systems in Dock Ships

Release Time: 2025-06-27

The ship power system involves various types of cables such as high - voltage power cables and control cables. The precise fusion technology of cable intermediate fusion joints is crucial. The fusion process uses professional equipment to fuse cable conductors into one at high temperature, forming a connection point with low resistance and high strength. In the ship power system, for the cable connection between the high - power diesel generator and the propulsion motor, the requirements for fusion quality are extremely high. Precise fusion ensures no virtual connection or air gap between conductors. Even under the vibration and swing conditions during ship navigation, it can maintain stable conductive performance, ensuring the continuous and reliable operation of the propulsion system, and making the ship's power output "continuous".

The environment of dock ships is complex. Factors such as salt spray corrosion, humidity, and vibration impact test cable joints. Cable intermediate fusion joints use corrosion - resistant and high - strength insulation and protection materials. The outer sealing and protection structure can effectively block the intrusion of salt spray, and the inner insulation material maintains stable electrical performance in a humid environment. In the cable connection of loading and unloading equipment on the ship deck, facing the situation of sea spray wetting and large temperature difference between day and night, the fusion joint can resist environmental erosion, ensure the stable power supply of equipment such as cranes and conveyor belts, facilitate efficient cargo loading and unloading, and reduce operation delays caused by power failures.

With the intelligent development of dock ships, the power system has an increasing demand for reliability and intelligent operation and maintenance. Cable intermediate fusion joints not only ensure the safety of basic power transmission but also can integrate temperature and partial discharge monitoring modules. In the power distribution system of large cruise ships, by monitoring the operation status of fusion joints, potential faults such as overheating and insulation degradation can be warned in advance. Cooperating with the ship's intelligent power management system, it realizes the transformation from "passive repair" to "active operation and maintenance", promoting the upgrade of the maritime power system to a safer and more intelligent direction, and building a solid power guarantee network for dock ship operations.
