The system has an alternating current (AC) electrical power supply for supplying AC power (13), the AC power supply being adapted to be carried by the aircraft remote from the rotor (11). A converter converts the AC power to direct-current (DC) power. At least one ice protection device is carried by the rotor and operated using the DC power.</p> |
