An electrical power control and distribution system for a motor vehicle includes a processing unit (12) and a distributor unit (32). The processing unit (12), which may include a microprocessor, is connected to switches (18, 20) mounted on the vehicle facia panel and is arranged to directly control low-power electrical equipment (28), in dependence on the switch settings. The distributor unit includes actuators (34), controlled by the control switches (18, 20) via the processing unit (12), which can energise high current electrical equipment (36) via second supply leads (38) of suitably large cross- section. The system enables the length of large cross-section lead to be minimised by appropriate positioning of the distributor unit (32) since the low current leads (30, 26, 16) can be of small cross-section. <IMAGE> |
