Abstract

A solid-state power distribution system having a first solid-state switching device (SSSD) and a second solid-state switching device (SSSD) for distributing power from an AC power source to a load includes a leakage current reduction circuit for reducing leakage current generated by the SSSDs when Off. When the first and second SSSDs are Off, the leakage current reduction circuit provides a positive bias voltage across controlled terminals of the first SSSD and a negative bias voltage across controlled terminals of the second SSSD.
