Abstract
A distributed low voltage power system can include a power distribution module (PDM) that distributes a low voltage signal through at least one output channel. The system can also include at least one electrical device coupled to the at least one output channel of the PDM, where the at least one electrical device operates using the low voltage signal. The system can further include an emergency battery pack (EBP) coupled to the at least one output channel of the PDM and to the at least one electrical device, where the EBP comprises at least one battery cell. The EBP can use the low voltage signal to charge the at least one battery cell, and where the EBP releases emergency low voltage signal to the at least one electrical device when the PDM stops distributing the low voltage signal.
