Abstract
A braking system includes at least one power supply, and first and second brake component each at least partially operated by electrical power. First and second power supply networks electrically connect the power supply with the first brake component and the second brake component respectively. An auxiliary power supply link is activatable to electrically connect the first brake component and the second brake component when a failure occurs in one of the first power supply network or the second power supply network, the auxiliary power supply link adapted to transmit the electrical power between the first brake component and the second brake component when the failure occurs.
