Abstract

A method and apparatus for providing regulated direct current power for a direct current load on an aircraft. A regulated transformer rectifier unit on an aircraft comprises a plurality of converter modules connected in parallel between an input and an output. Each converter module in the plurality of converter modules comprises a transformer rectifier unit. The plurality of converter modules are controlled by a controller to provide regulated direct current power at the output from alternating current power provided at the input from an alternating current power source on the aircraft.
