Naval Ship Repair Yard (NSRY) Karwar is a premier facility of the Indian Navy, dedicated to the maintenance, repair, and operational readiness of naval vessels. It is a key naval facility located at INS Kadamba, the largest naval base on the west coast of India.
When a submarine surfaces, immediate inspection of internal systems is critical. A Static Frequency Converter (SFC) is required to simulate onboard power. Delays in shore-based power can compromise operational readiness.
Transporting and installing the SFC near the shoreline added complexity, along with the need to ensure power readiness in a time-sensitive naval environment.
How can a Static Frequency Converter (SFC) be transported and installed near the shoreline for real-time diagnostics, while ensuring technical compliance in critical and high-stakes naval environments?
