An apparatus for managing input power between a passenger bridge and a battery charger includes a power distributor, a current monitor and a controller. The power distributor receives input power and outputs power to the passenger bridge and the battery charger. The current monitor measures current drawn by the passenger bridge and the battery charger to provide a signal to the controller indicative of the power consumption of the passenger bridge and the battery charger. The controller adjusts the output power setting of the battery charger in response to the power consumption of the passenger bridge and the battery charger by reading the output power of the battery charger, comparing the power consumption of the passenger bridge and the battery charger to a predetermined operating threshold to determine whether an overthreshold condition exists, and modulating the battery charger output power setting in response to the overthreshold condition.
