Abstract
Electrical power distribution system for supplying a set of fixed-frequency loads and a set of variable-frequency loads, includes a set of at least one fixed-frequency AC voltage generator and a set of at least one variable-frequency AC voltage generator, a DC distribution network supplying the variable-frequency loads by means of inverter stages, a first set of rectifier stages connected between the fixed-frequency generators and the distribution network, and a second set of rectifier stages connected between the variable-frequency generators and the DC distribution network. The first set of rectifier stages includes bidirectional rectifiers capable of providing a bidirectional transfer of power and protection means against fault currents connected between the bidirectional rectifiers and the distribution network.
