    Abstract: 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.

    Abstract: 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 first voltage sensor is connected to sense voltage of the first DC bus. A second voltage sensor is connected to sense voltage of the second DC bus. A ram air turbine (RAT) automatic deployment controller is operatively connected to the first voltage sensor and to the second voltage sensor to automatically deploy a RAT based on the combined status of the first voltage sensor and the second voltage sensor.

    Abstract: A system includes a first AC bus configured to supply power from a first generator. A second AC bus is configured to supply power from a second generator. An AC essential bus tie contactor (AETC) selectively connects between an AC essential bus and the first and second AC busses. An AETC controller is connected to switch the AETC between a first state connecting the AC essential bus to the first AC bus and a second state connecting the AC essential bus to the second AC bus. A sensor system is configured to detect at least one of delta current and overcurrent in the AC essential bus and in at least one of the first AC bus and the second AC bus. The sensor system is operatively connected to the AETC controller for switching the AETC between the first state and the second state based on input from the sensor system.
