9.1 General

9.1.1 As part of the Periodic Surveys (Class, Safcon and Loadline), LR Surveyors will examine the hull, hull appendages, sea chests and sea connections. As part of these surveys, the breakdown of coatings, shell erosion, sea chest condition and integrity of sea connections and their associated valves would be confirmed. LR Surveyors would not be surveying the equipment associated with the system itself since it is not a classed system, e.g. they would not survey the air compressors and inboard piping. Any electrical panels would be generally examined as part of the five yearly survey of electrical equipment.
