Abstract
A system includes a starter generator configured to provide power to a first bus and a first inverter, a second inverter coupled to the first inverter, a first switch configured to selectively couple the second inverter to the first bus and to a second bus, a second switch configured to selectively couple a first motor to the first bus and to the second bus, and a controller. The controller sets the first switch to a second position and the second switch to a second position, causes the second inverter to convert the power from the first inverter to a starting power for starting the first motor, causes the second inverter to increase the starting power to match the power provided to the first bus from the starter generator, and switches the second switch to the first position, when the starting power matches the power from the starter generator.
