4 Multiple Radar Installations

  4.1 Where two radars are required to be carried they should be so installed that each radar can be operated individually and both can be operated simultaneously without being dependant upon one another. When an emergency source of electrical power is provided in accordance with the appropriate requirements of chapter II-1 of the 1974 SOLAS Convention, both radars should be capable of being operated from this source.

  4.2 Where two radars are fitted, interswitching facilities may be provided to improve the flexibility and availability of the overall radar installation. They should be so installed that failure of either radar would not cause the other radar to be adversely affected.
