The advent of high power, high voltage semiconductor technology is transforming the naval electric power shipboard design. Navy ships will feature an integrated electric power system and all-electric drives in order to accomplish goals like improved maneuverability, advance high electric power weapon capability, reduced manpower and maintenance, higher flexibility, and improved fight-through capabilities. The future electric naval ships will demand a much higher power and energy density than commercial ships. Therefore, traditional electric system design criteria are unlikely to be fully applicable for the design and operation of NAVY all-electric ships with adequate power quality and reliability. This paper investigates key design electrical interface criteria subject to possible alterations and proposes a novel approach to harmonic limits in standards. It concludes, that such the proposed flexible limits will better meet all the complex system requirements associated with future of all-electric navy ships.
