How many PECUs are on board in total?

• A. 5
• B. 10
• C. 15
• D. 20

Answer: (B)

The question tests your familiarity with the ship’s PECU inventory—the total number of PECUs installed. PECUs are distributed to provide control and monitoring across the ship’s electrical zones, and the standard setup places five units in each of the two main electrical areas. Adding those together gives ten PECUs in total. This arrangement gives complete coverage for essential circuits while maintaining redundancy and manageability, which is why ten is the official count in the indoctrination materials. Five would leave one area uncovered, while fifteen or twenty would exceed the established inventory.
