This disclosure relates to bidirectional current limiting circuits for use in aircraft electric power distribution systems. Example embodiments include a bidirectional current limiting circuit (500a-c) comprising first and second JFETs (501, 502) connected between first and second terminals (503, 504), wherein: the first terminal (503) is connected to a drain of the first JFET (501) and to a gate of the second JFET (502) via a first biasing element (505, 701); he second terminal (504) is connected to a drain of the second JFET (502) and to a gate of the first JFET (501) via a second biasing element (506, 702); and a source of the first JFET (501) is connected to a source of the second JFET (502).
