Dive R1770 Highlights Oregon Offshore

The MJ03B junction box was temporarily deployed to test power load on the junction box LV01C. ROPOS plugged in the J-box and the end of the 120 m cable near the base of the mooring. At this point, LV01C was connected to Primary Node PN1C, and also connected to MJ03B to simulate the Platform Instrument Assembly on the Shallow Profiler Mooring. When the system was powered up there was a load surge and the node tripped again. Expansion port 1 and expansion port 2 were also tested. LV01C was recovered. All cables and ports were capped.
