Abstract
A system of a vehicle may include an electrical load, a generator, and first and second conduits. The electrical load of the vehicle may include a high energy device that utilizes above 270 volts during operations of the vehicle. The generator may be coupled to an engine of the vehicle and configured to generate electrical power at a voltage above 270 volts for the electrical load of the high energy device during operations of the vehicle. The first and second conduits may be arranged along each other to house respective first and second conductors that are electrically disposed between the electrical load and the generator.
Claims20
A system of a vehicle, the system comprising:
- an electrical load of the vehicle including a high energy device that utilizes above 270 volts during operations of the vehicle;
- a generator coupled to an engine of the vehicle and configured to generate electrical power at a voltage above 270 volts for the electrical load of the high energy device during operations of the vehicle;
- and
- first and second conduits arranged along each other to house respective first and second conductors that are electrically disposed between the electrical load and the generator.
A system of an aircraft, the system comprising:
- an electrical load of the aircraft including a high energy device that utilizes above 270 volts during operations of the aircraft;
- and
- a generator coupled to an engine of the aircraft and configured to generate electrical power at a voltage above 270 volts for the electrical load of the high energy device during operations of the aircraft.
A method of utilizing above 270 volts during operations of a vehicle, the method comprising:
- utilizing, by an electrical load of the vehicle including a high energy device, above 270 volts during operations of the vehicle;
- generating, by a generator coupled to an engine of the vehicle, electrical power at a voltage above 270 volts for the electrical load of the high energy device during operations of the vehicle;
- and
- electrically connecting, by first and second conductors housed by respective first and second conduits that are arranged along each other, the electrical load and the generator.
