Abstract
An example engine-driven power system includes: an engine; a generator configured to convert mechanical engine power to electrical power; first and second power subsystems configured to convert the mechanical or electrical power to first and second power outputs, wherein the first and second power subsystems are configurable to output the first and second power outputs simultaneously; an input device configured to control a load management priority, wherein the load management priority comprises at least one of an adjustable ranking, an adjustable balance, or bus voltage thresholds; and control circuitry configured to: control the first and second power subsystems to output the first and second power outputs based on first and second demands; and, in response to determining that a total demand exceeds a capacity, control the first or second power subsystems to reduce the power outputs or the demands based on the load management priority.
