orders and information among various stations in the ship.
Sound-powered telephones are powered by the energy of the speaker's voice and provide
functional shipboard communications. As its source of power, the equipment uses the audio energy in the
sound waves of the speaker's voice. Audio energy is converted to electrical energy by the transmitter
(microphone).
An alternating current produced by audio energy is impressed on the coil of the receiver unit and
causes the diaphragm of the receiver to vibrate in unison with the transmitter diaphragm. In this way, the
receiver generates sound waves which correspond to those impressed on the transmitter by the talker's
voice, and the speech is reproduced at the receiver.
