A power converter is provided that includes a detection circuit configured to determine a power source type based on at least one characteristic of power received from a power source. The detection circuit is also configured to determine an operating edge of the soft AC source by monitoring at least one parameter as the soft AC power source approaches a power limit, and assign an operating point to the soft AC power source based on the operating edge to increase power delivery of the soft AC power source.

A power interruption circuit for use in a power distribution module is provided. The power interruption circuit is configured to provide power to a load and includes a shunt resistor, a plurality of switches, and microprocessor. The microprocessor is configured to determine a digitized value of a current flowing through the shunt resistor, determine a digitized value of an output voltage of the power interruption circuit, calculate, from the digitized current value and the digitized output voltage value, a power provided by the power interruption circuit to the load, compare the calculated power to a threshold power level, and control the plurality of switches based on the comparison.
