An electrical power distribution system includes a first high side sub-module including a high side converter and a high side energy storage device. The first high side sub-module is electrically coupled to a high side load that requires a high voltage or medium voltage DC, the high voltage DC being higher than the medium voltage DC. The system also includes a first low side sub-module including a low side converter and a low side energy storage device. The first high side sub-module and the first low side sub-module are configured to be inductively coupled. The first high side sub-module and the first low side sub-module form a first module.

Modular solid-state power converter and fault protector

An apparatus for modular AC to AC frequency conversion is disclosed. An input AC source is configured to generate an input AC voltage at a first frequency. At least one primary low frequency (LF) conversion stage is configured to generate a DC voltage, and comprises a first pair of metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs). At least one primary high frequency (HF) conversion stage is configured to generate the DC voltage, and comprises a first pair of high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs). At least one secondary LF conversion stage is configured to receive the DC voltage and generate an output AC voltage at a second frequency, and comprises a second pair of MOSFETs. At least one secondary HF conversion stage is configured to receive the DC voltage and generate the output AC voltage at the second frequency, and comprises a second pair of HEMTs.
