70% to passIn accordance with Coast Guard Regulations (46 CFR Part 112), which of the listed starting aids is acceptable for use with the emergency diesel generator?
AA
BB
CC
DD
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B. According to 46 CFR Part 112, the acceptable starting aid for the emergency diesel generator is a starting battery and starting system. This is because the emergency generator must be able to start independently of the ship's main electrical system, and a starting battery and system provides a reliable means to do so. The other options would not be acceptable, as they do not meet the regulatory requirements for an independent starting system for the emergency generator.
