Abstract:
A system for restricting power to a load to prevent engaging circuit protection device for an aircraft. The system includes an energy source of an aircraft. The system further includes a plurality of sensors configured to sense at least an electrical parameter of a load of the plurality of loads. The system further includes an aircraft controller configured to receive electrical parameter of a load of the plurality of loads from the plurality of sensors, compare the electrical parameter to at least a current allocation threshold, detect that the electrical parameter has reached the current allocation threshold, calculate a power reduction to the load, and reduce power from the at least an energy source to each load of the plurality of loads by the power reduction. The system further includes at least an electrical circuit of an aircraft, wherein the electrical circuit comprises a circuit protection device.
