Abstract
A method of maintaining electrical power to electrical systems in operation during reconfiguration or maintenance of a power distribution system for the electrical systems includes providing a Y-connection in a set of electrical power lines. The Y-connection includes an input, a primary output, and a feed output. The set of electrical power lines supplies electrical power from a power source to the electrical systems through the primary output. To establish a feed for maintenance or reconfiguration of the power feed, power is fed from the power source through the feed output of the Y-connection to the electrical systems while power is being supplied to the electrical systems through the primary output.
