Technology is developing at breakneck speed, and the days when the concept of electrical engineering characterized electrotechnical installations on board ships have long gone.
Today these installations are complex systems of different types of voltages that are connected to and controlled and checked by computer networks. In addition, today’s security and reliability requirements are very high. These demands can only be met by a thorough know-how of the various systems and of how they can be integrated successfully into one complete system.

In our company, we have expert knowledge of all aspects of present-day marine electrotechnical systems. The complexity of these systems on the one hand and the specific marine requirements and circumstances on the other, require specialist knowledge and specific experience. Personnel that has these special skills is scarce. Therefore, all Tijssen Elektro employees are trained on the job in order to internalize the required skills. As a result, they are all experts who can work independently and think out-of-the-box, which guarantees quality, reliability, flexibility and ingenuity.

Even though shipyards are usually our clients, shipmasters come to our office in Wemeldinge as well. Here they can get information about the latest developments in navigation and communication and we give them instructions on how they can prepare themselves for the maiden trip.
