  • Publication number: 20160049868
    Abstract: System, especially for use in aircraft, for controlling at least one switching device (5, 5b, 5n) able to open or close the connection between at least one power source and at least one supplied device, and means for measuring the state of the power supply channel. The system comprises: at least two microcontrollers (1a, 1b) each able to emit a command intended for each switching device (5, 5b, 5n), said microcontrollers (1a, 1b) being connected to at least one portion of the means for measuring the state of the power supply channel; and a means (14, 14b, 14n) for determining the command to be transmitted, able to determine the command to be transmitted to each switching device (5, 5b, 5n) from the commands emitted by each microcontroller (1a, 1b) and intended for said control switch.

  • Publication number: 20160049795
    Abstract: Supply system for electronic boards of an electrical distribution system comprising at least two protection boards (2a, 2b) each able to control the supply of at least one protected pathway (3a, 3b) on the basis of a power line (4a, 4b), characterized by the fact that each protection board (2a, 2b) comprises at least one voltage converter (13a, 13b) able to provide an internal supply voltage of the protection board on the basis of a supply voltage, the voltage converter (13a) of a first protection board (2a) being connected to at least one second protection board (2b) so as to be able to provide the internal supply of the second protection board (2b) in case of failure of the voltage converter (13b) of the second protection board (2b).

  • Publication number: 20160050273
    Abstract: Electrical distribution system for an aircraft comprising at least one computer communicating with the avionics (2), at least one computer (1) suitable for communicating with at least one computer communicating with the avionics (2), each computer containing stored data. The system comprises a context information storage device (4), suitable for storing a copy of the data stored in the different computers, and an updating device, suitable for determining that a computer has been replaced by determining that it does not hold the same data as the other computers of the distribution system and/or as the context information storage device (4), the updating device being suitable for controlling the downloading of the data from the context information storage device or from a computer communicating with the avionics, into the replaced computer.
