THE MEDIA VOICE OF THE GLOBAL MARINA INDUSTRY

Redefining marina safety and connectivity

VoltSafe Marine shore power pedestals are setting a new precedent for unparalleled safety and connectivity on the docks for marina operators and boaters alike. Featuring award-winning hardware and software, the innovative solution utilises magnetic hardware connectors, eliminating the need for prongs and live recessed metal contacts which are prone to corrosion. The magnets, along with a unique electrical fingerprint, ensure a safer and more reliable connection.

The system is complemented by an integrated feature-rich software management platform, allowing marinas to control power at the slips. It detects current leakage, has a built-in ELCI breaker, and receives alerts about safety concerns on the docks. In addition, it features power metering, level-2 EV charging and automated utility billing. And, by saving time, energy and money, it lightens the load on the task-heavy job of the marina operator.
Currently available in a 30A set-up, with a 50A on the near horizon, the pedestals offer a versatile system that is poised to vastly improve electrical safety and efficiency for marinas in North America. Solutions for European markets will also be available very soon.
Traditional marine electrical power pedestals often pose problems due to recessed contacts that can hide corrosion, a significant cause of marina and boat fires. These pedestals require regular maintenance and manual monitoring, which is both inefficient and costly. The inherent risk of mixing water and electricity inspired VoltSafe Marine to create a safer connection method for maritime environments.
VoltSafe’s achievements have been recognised internationally, with its shore power system earning prestigious awards including a 2023 IBEX Innovation Award for Boatyard & Marina Hardware & Software and a Consumer Electronics Show (CES) Innovation Award.
