Power distribution arrangement esp for powering loads in aircraft

摘要

An arrangement for power distribution in an aeroplane uses a multi-wire power cable whereby in the length of the cable is located at least one distributor to which a group of loads is connected by a stub cable. A correlation unit (11 to 13) is assigned to each load group (8 to 10) connected on one side by the stub cable (5 to 7) with all the wires (1) of the power cable and on the other side with the individual loads. A central power controller (27) processes fault information through a control bus (33) and works with the correlators so that based on the fault information, the affected load is automatically reconnected to an intact power-carrying wire. The fault information is delivered by a status unit (44).
