The TecPOWER^® TPB Series power management system provides breakthrough technology for marine electrical systems. Now, Atlas Marine Systems has made the Automated Power Management capability usually found on vessels 120’ and above available to smaller vessels with limited space. Technology advancements in control components have allowed full power management controls to be placed in the same size enclosure as a manual switchboard. This results in a giant leap forward bringing smaller yachts in line with larger yachts.

Sophisticated Power Management
The TPB system is available with various degrees of automation and power management. Motor operated circuit breakers enable push-button or touch screen selection of power sources.  Many other features can be integrated to create a total power management system such as automatic generator engine control and paralleling.

Easy To Use
Designed with ergonomics and ease of operation in mind, the TPB system is very user-friendly and simple to operate, even for an inexperienced crew member. All metering and controls are easy to view, and easy to understand.  Independent meter groups are provided allowing separate monitoring of each power source.

Custom Design
Each AC and DC TPB switchboard is designed to your requirements by our highly experienced marine electrical engineers. They will work with you to ensure the TPB switchboard will have the level automation that your yacht needs as well as being certified for the classification society of your choice. Any special requirements can be accommodated and the switchboards are available in a variety of cabinet sizes suitable for any yacht arrangement.

Classification
TPB switchboards can be designed to meet all marine classification agency requirements including ABS, Lloyd’s, DNV, RINA and BV. The certification is taken care of by our engineers and the switchboard is supplied with a complete set of stamped drawings.

Compact and Lightweight
Designed from the ground up, based on years of marine experience, the TPB switchboard enclosures are built of light-weight corrosion resistant material and are designed to minimize size and weight when compared to the typical switchboard design.
