Space status board providing a schematic of major systems and a tabular listing of the major equipment within the individual machinery spaces for maintaining a plot of systems alignments and equipment operating status. This board is similar in configuration to that provided for the Stage I documentation (figure 2-20).

Diagram for Electrical Plant Status (DLS) delineating generators, switchboards, and shore-power connections within the electrical distribution systems. The DLS is provided in both the electrical operating group and in the Stage I (EOOW) documentation for maintaining a plot of the system alignment.

Diagram for plant steaming conditions versus optimum generator combinations provided in the electrical operating group documentation delineating the preferred electric power generator combination. This diagram is the same as that provided in the Stage I documentation.

Training diagrams of each major piping system developed for Stage I, plus diagrams of such systems as fuel-oil service, and main engine lube oil that are normally located within the machinery spaces.

Stage III is considered as the system component level attended by the component operators.

The component operators place equipment in and out of operation, align systems, and monitor and control their operation by manipulating the required valves, switches, and controllers. Stage III documents include:

Index pages listing each document by identification number and title for each specified system such as fuel-oil service system, lube oil service system, etc.

Component procedure cards providing step-by-step procedures for systems alignment or component operation.

Component procedure cards as required to support each operation or alignment.

Alignment diagrams (figure 2-23) amplifying the written procedure to assist the component operator in proper systems alignment. Alignment diagrams are provided whenever two or more alignment conditions exist for a given system or component.

The operational use of EOP documentation is of primary importance at all levels in con-trolling, supervising, and operating the evolutional functions of the engineering plant.
