| 摘要 |
The invention relates to a power supply device (3) for supplying power to an electrical consumer (2) having a variable power consumption in a power distribution system (1), particularly in a DC power distribution system for lighting applications, wherein the power supply device (3) is output current controlled and is adapted to provide the output current depending on the power consumed by the electrical consumer (2). Since the output current is not constant, but controlled depending on the power consumed by the electrical consumer (2) being preferentially a lamp, the output current can be adapted to the actually consumed power, thereby allowing for an improved efficiency of distributing the power in the power distribution system (1). In particular, if less power is consumed by the electrical consumer (2), a lower output current can be provided, thereby reducing losses in cables and electrical connectors of the power distribution system. |
