Electro 3 Quiz

Which of the following is a common consequence of marine growth on ship hulls?

• Reduced fuel consumption

• Improved structural integrity

• Increased drag and fuel consumption

• Enhanced maneuverability

What is the role of the anode in the MGCP system?

• To protect the hull by corroding itself

• To monitor the electrical potential

• To serve as the cathode

• To calibrate the control unit

Which material is typically used for sacrificial anodes in MGCP systems?

• Copper

• Steel

• Zinc or aluminum

• Titanium

What does the reference electrode do in an MGCP system?

• Corrodes to protect the hull

• Regulates the flow of electrical current

• Cleans the ship's hull

Why is proper placement of the anode important?

• To ensure the reference electrode remains functional

• To achieve even current distribution across the hull

• To minimize fuel consumption

• To increase corrosion on the anode

What should be done if anodes are significantly worn?

• Calibrate them

• Replace them

• Inspect them

• Ignore them

What is a safety consideration when working on ICCP components?

• Use proper PPE

• Increase current output

• Ignore alarms

• Work without supervision

What is the primary purpose of shipboard lighting?
