摘要： In accordance with at least one aspect of this disclosure, a controller for an aircraft electrical system includes, a software safe module. In embodiments, the software safe module can be configured to determine whether there was a sudden power failure upon controller initialization, and cause operation of the controller in a software safe mode if there was a sudden power failure such that manual intervention is required to leave the software safe mode to prevent repetitive power failure of the controller.

摘要： A method includes performing a test for transformer rectifier unit (TRU) backfeed protection by removing AC power supplied to the TRU but keeping the TRU contactor closed for a first predetermined span of time. The method includes observing the TRU for a second predetermined span of time. The method includes determining if the contactor opens during the second span of time, that a TRU backfeed protection is functional and passes the test, and determining if the contactor does not open during the second span of time, that the TRU backfeed protection has failed the test.

摘要： A system includes a first AC bus configured to supply power from a first AC power source. A second AC bus is configured to supply power from a second AC power source. A first transformer rectifier unit (TRU) connects a first DC bus to the first AC bus through a first TRU contactor (TRUC). A second TRU connects a second DC bus to the second AC bus through a second TRUC. A ram air turbine (RAT) automatic deployment controller is operatively connected to the first TRUC and to the second TRUC to automatically deploy a RAT based on the combined status of the first TRUC and the second TRUC.

摘要： A closing mechanism controller includes contactor operating logic that generates a software or firmware based closing mechanism command signal. The controller also includes hardware interlock circuitry that generates an interlock signal, the hardware interlock circuity being configured to compare an interlock signal to the software based closing mechanism command signal and to provide an enable signal to the closing mechanism when the interlock signal matches the closing mechanism command signal.

摘要： A system includes a first AC bus configured to supply power from a first generator. A first generator line contactor (GLC) selectively connects the first AC bus to the first generator. A second AC bus is configured to supply power from a second generator. A second GLC selectively connecting the second AC bus to the second generator. An auxiliary generator line contactor (ALC) is connected to selectively supply power to the first and second AC buses from an auxiliary generator. A first bus tie contactor (BTC) electrically connects between the first GLC and the ALC. A second BTC electrically connects between the ALC and the second GLC. A ram air turbine (RAT) automatic deployment controller is operatively connected to automatically deploy a RAT based on the combined status of the first GLC, the second GLC, the ALC, the first BTC, and the second BTC.

摘要： A system includes a transformer rectifier unit (TRU) including a backfeed sense module. A contactor is operatively connected to the TRU for selectively supplying DC power to a DC bus from the TRU with the contactor closed and isolating the DC bus from the TRU with the contactor opened. A contactor driver is operatively connected to receive a signal from the backfeed sense module and to control opening and closing of the contactor based on the signal. The contactor driver is configured to open the contactor upon receipt of the signal indicative of backfeed detected in the TRU.
