Abstract

A control system for charging an aircraft, comprising: a battery pack, an input device configured to enable a user to select between different charging modes, two main contactors connecting the battery pack to an electric propulsion unit (EPU) load and an auxiliary load, a EPU load contactor connecting the battery pack to the EPU load and a controller configured to receive the selected charge mode and control the contactors, keep the two main contactors open upon receiving a user selection to charge in a first mode, close the two main contactors and keep an EPU load contactor open upon receiving a user selection to charge in a second mode, and close the two main contactors and the EPU load contactor upon receiving a user selection to charge in a third mode.
