Abstract: An electrical power distribution network of an electric power system of an aircraft is operated in at least one normal operation mode such that it provides for load sharing across electrical power sources (A, B, C, D) with respect to electrical loads (AA, BB, CC, DD), wherein the electrical power distribution network, in case of an electrical fault, is operated in at least one electrical failure mitigating operation mode, which provides for electric fault isolation, such that a network portion of the electrical power distribution network including the electrical fault is isolated from at least one other network portion of the of the electrical power distribution network.

Abstract: Provided is a solid state power controller (SSPC). The SSPC comprises a power supply line configured to be connected between a power source and a load. Further, the solid state power controller comprises a semiconductor switching unit provided on the power supply line and configured to switch between at least two states according to a command signal. The at least two states include a conducting state and a non-conducting state. Further the solid state power controller comprises a state machine, which is configured to exhibit at least two states, including an ON state and an OFF state. The state machine is further configured to output the command signal according to a current state of the state machine.
