Abstract

An electric system of a road vehicle; the electric system has: a high-voltage electric circuit provided with a first storage system; a low-voltage electric circuit provided with a plurality of electrical loads; and a DC-DC electronic power converter, which connects the low-voltage electric circuit and the high-voltage electric circuit to one another. The DC-DC electronic power converter has: a high-voltage input; a low-voltage output; a conversion device; a control unit, which controls the conversion device; and a second storage system connected to the low-voltage output. The control unit, only when the vehicle is parked, is configured to detect a state of charge of the second storage system and to activate the conversion device only when the state of charge of the second storage system is below a charge threshold to charge the second storage system.
