Abstract

An electrical power supply system for an aircraft includes a plurality of generators, each being couplable to and rotatable by an aircraft engine. and a plurality of electrical conversion units, each having a plurality of inputs and at least one output. Each generator includes at least four AC phases. The inputs of each individual electrical conversion unit are connected to a plurality of phases of at least two of the plurality of generators. The electrical conversion units each includes a rectification and conversion device for providing an output voltage having a predeterminable frequency and voltage level at the output.
