Abstract
The invention relates to the on-board electric power network architecture of a vehicle cabin using domestic devices, in particular of an aircraft cabin, including primary networks (11, 12) connected in parallel to a single domestic network (3) of the cabin for powering domestic devices via converter units (41, 42; 40). Measurement sensors (80) are arranged at the output of each converter unit (41, 42; 40) and the measurements are transmitted (L1) to a regulating device (9) for sharing the supply of the domestic network (3) according to the available power, each converter unit (41, 42; 40) comprises an upstream processing stage (E1) and a downstream processing stage (E2), each including an anti-disturbance device (D1, D2), linked (B1, B2) with the primary network (11, 12) and linked (B3, B4) with the domestic network (3), respectively. The anti-disturbance devices (D1, D2) are coupled with a set (7) of domestic level adapters (71, 72) distributed in the processing stages (E1, E2), the set of adapters (7) likewise including a neutral-line separator (73).
