The invention relates to the on-board electric power network architecture of a vehicle cabin using domestic devices, in particular of an aircraft cabin, including primary networks (11, 12) connected in parallel to a single domestic network (3) of the cabin for powering domestic devices via converter units (41, 42; 40). Measurement sensors (80) are arranged at the output of each converter unit (41, 42; 40) and the measurements are transmitted (L1) to a regulating device (9) for sharing the supply of the domestic network (3) according to the available power, each converter unit (41, 42; 40) comprises an upstream processing stage (E1) and a downstream processing stage (E2), each including an anti-disturbance device (D1, D2), linked (B1, B2) with the primary network (11, 12) and linked (B3, B4) with the domestic network (3), respectively. The anti-disturbance devices (D1, D2) are coupled with a set (7) of domestic level adapters (71, 72) distributed in the processing stages (E1, E2), the set of adapters (7) likewise including a neutral-line separator (73).
An electric power supply method for a domestic network placed on board a passenger cabin using a domestic equipment, requiring voltage levels of a terrestrial domestic type, the method comprising with primary electric power sources being supplied over at least two primary networks:
An electric power supply network architecture for a vehicle cabin using a domestic equipment, requiring voltage levels of a terrestrial domestic type, wherein at least two primary networks for distributing electric power are each powered by an electric generator, wherein the primary networks are connected in parallel to a single cabin domestic network for powering said domestic equipment via converter units, with at least one converter unit per primary network, wherein sensors for measuring voltage, current intensity, frequency and power factor are arranged at the output of each converter unit and the measurements are transmitted to a regulating device for sharing the power supply of the domestic network according to the power available in each primary network, wherein each converter unit comprises an upstream power processing stage and a downstream power processing stage, each integrating an anti-disturbance device for filtering, compensating and protecting the an electric-network, respectively linked with the corresponding primary network and linked with the domestic network, and wherein the anti-disturbance devices are coupled to a set of adaptors adapting the voltage and frequency of domestic levels distributed in the power processing stages, said set of adaptors also integrating a neutral line splitter between the primary networks and the domestic network.
