Abstract

A system for controlling power output of a power supply includes power conversion circuitry, output terminals, and a controller. The controller controls the power conversion circuitry to provide a known current to one or more leads, wherein the one or more leads are shorted at the distal end. The controller measures a voltage drop across the one or more leads shorted at the distal end. The controller stores a parameter determined based on the voltage drop, such as a resistance of the one or more leads. The controller controls the power conversion circuitry to provide a target voltage to the load based on the stored parameter when the one or more leads are not shorted at the load.
