Abstract
A brake system includes a first electric power-supply-unit (EPSU) and a first electronic-brake-control-unit (EBCU). The first EBCU is connected to the first EPSU. Also, the brake system includes a second EPSU and a second EBCU, which is connected to the second EPSU. The brake system further includes a first axle-pressure-modulator (APM) for service-brake-chambers associated with a first vehicle-axle. The brake system includes a second APM for spring-brake-cylinders for a second vehicle-axle. The brake system includes two power-supply-switches (PSS). A first PSS is connected to the first EBCU, the second EBCU and the first APM and configured to connect the first EBCU or the second EBCU to the first APM. A second PSS is connected to the first EBCU, the second EBCU and the second APM and configured to connect the first EBCU or the second EBCU to the second APM.
