Abstract
A vehicle, system, and method of providing electrical power to a vehicle. The electrical system includes a variable power source, a constant power source, a bus line connecting the variable power source to an electrical load of the vehicle, a switch between the bus line and the constant power source, and a processor. The processor is configured to monitor a voltage being supplied to the electrical load by the variable power source and to operate a fuse controller to close the switch between the bus line and the constant power source when the voltage being supplied to the electrical load drops below a first voltage threshold.
