Overvoltage in marine electrical systems refers to a situation where the voltage level in the system exceeds the normal or rated voltage. This can be caused by various factors such as faults in the electrical equipment, voltage regulators, or power supply sources.

In marine electrical systems, overvoltage can result in damage to the electrical components and equipment, such as motors, generators, and control systems. Additionally, overvoltage can increase the risk of electric shock to personnel, as higher voltage levels can cause more severe injury or even death.

To prevent overvoltage in marine electrical systems, it is important to ensure that the electrical equipment is properly installed and maintained, and that voltage regulators and protective devices are in place and functioning correctly. Regular testing and checking of the system can also help identify potential problems before they escalate into more serious issues.
