    Abstract: An energy supply device for reliably supplying energy to electrical loads, provides the energy supply by constant voltage sources. The number of constant voltage sources corresponds to the number of electrical loads. The energy supply device has a deactivatable balancing network. In this case, only the compensating currents are conducted via the balancing network, while the energy supply is provided via a direct electrical connection between the constant voltage source and the load. If a fault occurs, the balancing network can be deactivated. Faults in one branch thus do not affect the level of reliability of the energy supply in the remaining branches. After a faulty component has been located and isolated, the sources that are still intact, and the intact loads, can be brought back into operation by suitably configuring the balancing network. The availability of the drive system can thus be increased.

    Abstract: A direct current power system includes a common direct current (DC) bus configured to supply power to a plurality of loads. A plurality of alternating current (AC) to DC converter bridges supply DC power to the common CD bus. Each of the AC to DC converter bridges is connected to the common DC bus by at least one split DC link. The at least one split DC link includes a small capacitor connected across output terminals of the respective AC to DC converter bridge and at least one diode coupled between two terminals of the small capacitor and the large capacitor in a way to block an instantaneous current flow from the common DC bus to the respective AC to DC converter bridge in case of a fault of the AC to DC converter bridge.
