Marine electrics is not just for powering your valuable equipment. The latest ABYC education in electrical safety standards also equips us with the knowledge to keep you, your family, crew, and your yacht safe from all the hazards that incorrect wiring can bring.
Why choose Ocean Strider for your Boat’s Electrical Fault? And more.
- Correct Wiring, Every Time
We use properly sized marine-grade cables and connections to prevent overheating and reduce the risk of fires and equipment failures. - ABYC, Rated Protection Installed.
- We ensure all fuses and breakers are matched to the equipment and individual systems, protecting you, your yacht, equipment, and crew.
- Clean & Secure Installations
All cables are neatly routed, supported, and protected to ABYC standards, to eliminate chafe, vibration, and strain on the wiring.
There’s more than Just Power to Think About.
- Prevent Corrosion & Electrolysis
To reduce corrosion risks, we install systems designed to avoid galvanic corrosion, one of the main causes of underwater metal failure. - Stray Current Safety
As a result, we help keep your vessel safe from stray and exposed electrical contacts that would endanger you, your family, crew, or swimmers and divers near your boat.
Your Boat Deserves Expert Care
At Ocean Strider, we don’t cut corners. Above all, we protect what matters most—your safety, your investment, and your peace of mind.

Diagnostics & Fault-finding Services
Specialised battery testing. Some major battery manufacturers now insist that your batteries are tested with the latest equipment. Some equipment can permanently damage your batteries and is unsafe.
Marine Battery & Charging System Testing
We can test your 12V and 24V marine batteries and charging systems—without removing the battery from your vessel.
We can identify the following:
Safe for Onboard Use – no sparks, heat, or battery drain
- Identify weak or failing batteries early
- Starter & Alternator Testing for inboard engines
- Compatible with CCA and MCA rating systems

Thermal Imaging Diagnostics
ABYC-certified electrical technician using a thermal camera to detect the heat created by resistance faults.
Our thermal camera allows us to
- First, spot electrical hotspots that signal resistance, overloaded circuits, or failing components
- Then, document faults with saved reports
- As a result, we recommend timely repairs to avoid breakdowns and costly damage

Shore Power Circuit analyzer plugged into an onboard AC socket to check for ground faults.
To ensure system reliability, our AC Circuit Analyzer helps confirm your boat’s electrical systems are safe, correctly wired, and efficient.
- Specifically, it detects voltage drops under load to prevent power issues
- Identifies Wiring Faults, reversed polarity, and missing grounds
- Tests GFCIs and AFCIs for proper protection
- Additionally, it finds ground faults and high resistance points that pose shock or fire risks
Insulation & Wire Testing. Specialist Generator Fault Diagnostics.
To maintain safety, we check the health of your boat’s wiring and components.
- Measures Insulation Resistance to detect moisture intrusion or degraded cable insulation
- Lo-Ohms Function verifies clean, solid connections
- Auto Voltage Detection ensures safety by identifying live circuits
Together, these tools help prevent short circuits, corrosion-related faults, and electrical failures by keeping your vessel’s systems efficient, safe, and reliable.

Cable Fault Detection
Circuit fault diagnostic instrument
Using advanced diagnostic tools, we locate faults in onboard cabling—without tearing up your vessel.
- Pinpoints Cable Breaks, Shorts, Resistance, and Corrosion
- Accurate to 0.1m, with a range up to 3km depending on cable type
- Troubleshoot hidden wiring issues in hulls, behind walls, engine bays, and mast runs
By using specialised testing equipment, we can isolate problems, saving time and avoiding unnecessary rewiring or teardown.
Power and Resistance Testing
To confirm electrical performance, we test voltage, current, and resistance across all systems.
- To ensure performance, we check AC voltage at outlets—verifying if your inverter or shore power is delivering efficient, safe voltage.
- DC Voltage (Batteries)-Measure charge level accurately-During engine off/on or charging.
- Current Draw (Amps) -Identify excessive power draw from devices-Diagnosing battery drain.
- AC Frequency Check (Hz)-Verify generator or inverter output frequency, unstable appliances, and flickering lights.
- Continuity Checks- Test if wiring is broken or has high resistance. Troubleshoot dead devices.
- Resistance (Ohms)-Check ground paths and degraded wires. Tracing intermittent faults.
