A control method for a power supply system having at least two power parts with power outputs connected in parallel, wherein each power part is actuated via a separate control and where at least one first power limit is specified for each control, where the control actuates the allocated power part up to the first power limit in a normal mode, a first drawdown value of the output voltage is specified for each control upon reaching the first power limit, and the respective control regulates the output voltage of the related power part to the first drawdown value upon reaching the first power limit so that the parallel connection of a plurality of power parts without a super-ordinate control is achieved.
