Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a device for controlling the power supply of at least one aircraft maintenance actuator (7) from an electrical power supply network (10) of the aircraft comprising means (14) for controlling the electrical power supply of at least one maintenance actuator, and means (15) for establishing communication between the control means and at least one control unit (16) allowing a user to control the operation of at least one actuator. The control means are designed to compare the state of at least one control unit with at least one reference state (SBR) and/or an abnormal state (SBE1, SBE2, SBE3) for switching-on purposes, and to prohibit the activation of the actuator if the state of the control unit is different from a reference state (SBR) or corresponds.
