  • Abstract
    In reviewing the developments of the last 40 years in electrical engineering as applied to tankers the great increase in use and types of applications is emphasized. Electrical consumption has grown from a few to tens of thousands of kilowatt-hours. It is now vital to propulsion, navigation, communication, cargo handling, cooking, safety, and entertainment.
