33. Problem Definition
33
Unprecedented accident caused extensive damage to the Indian Naval ship Betwa causing
entire degaussing systems of the ship to non ops.
A steel–hulled ship is like a huge floating magnet a large magnetic field surrounding it . As
the ship moves through the water, this field also moves which add or subtracts from the
earth’s magnetic field. Because of its distortion effects on earth magnetic field. The ship can
act as a trigger device for magnetic sensitive devices. So to reduce the ships effects on the
earth magnetic field. Degaussing system has to be installed.
Degaussing is a process in which system of electrical cables are installed around the
circumference of ships hull running from bow to stern on both sides. A measured electrical
current is passed through these cables to restrict the ships induced magnetic field. To avoid
the distortion on magnetic sensitive devices
OEM was unavailable and Shipbuilder refused to take the task.
The entire refit schedule of the ship was affected.
35. Problem Definition
Impact of the problem:
Degaussing systems will remain non-ops
Vital equipment of ship was unprotected
Other departments work also affected
Ultimately, hamper the refit schedule of the ship

3. As per innovative solution first we did a trail on a single cable by
cutting the cable outer insulation at the loop cylindrically and
hanged the cable for whole day so that water can be drained out.

5. To remove total moisture of cable hot air was blowned on
innercore of cable. Once the insulation was improved with
satisfactory results. we started wrapping the cable with cotton tape.

6. We also insulated the outer layer of cable and Jb’s cable gland
with heat shrinking sleeve so that water can not renter in the cable
through Jb’s again.

68. Before commencement of work the
S.O.W was projected to the IHQ
(Navy) & DGM (L) for approval .
The QC team was permitted to
carry out the work.
The same was also registered in
QA division.
