Abstract
The method for on-board electrical power distribution according to the invention includes the producing a protected segregation interface (4A) between the primary distribution (2A) and the secondary distribution network for electrical power of the cabin system (30), referred to as the cabin network, so as to comply with the quality parameters for the primary distribution (2A); controlling the extraction of electrical power from the primary distribution (2A) by a cabin management system (G1, G2) depending on the availability of electrical power on this primary distribution (2A); converting and distributing this available electrical power in the cabin network (30) according to a suitable configuration of the loads (51, 52, 53) of this cabin network (30) and defined according to an electrical configuration of type, single/three-phase AC and DC, as well as of voltage level and frequency.
