DRIVE
January 19, 2023
A system for restricting power to a load to prevent engaging a circuit protection device for an electric aircraft includes an energy source. The energy source is communicatively coupled to a load, wherein the load includes a portion of a propulsion system. The system includes sensors configured to sense an electrical parameter. The system includes an aircraft controller communicatively connected to the energy source, wherein the aircraft controller is configured to receive an electrical parameter, compare the electrical parameter to a current allocation threshold, detect that the electrical parameter has reached a current allocation threshold, calculate a power reduction to the load, generate a current allocation threshold notification as a function of the detection, wherein the current allocation threshold notification indicates that the electrical parameter has reached the current allocation threshold. The system includes an electrical circuit including a circuit protection device communicatively connected to the aircraft controller.
