METHOD FOR CHECKING A CAPACITY OF A SUPPLY LINE

A method for checking a capacity of at least one supply line for an electrically operated assembly that is coupled electrically via the at least one supply line to an electrical system of an at least partially automated mobile platform. The method includes: ensuring a non-critical operating state of the mobile platform; determining an off-load terminal voltage at an input connection of the assembly, with zero-current supply line; applying a defined current to the supply line of the electrically operated assembly; determining an on-load terminal voltage at the input connection of the assembly, in doing so, the defined voltage being applied to the supply line of the electrically operated assembly; determining a differential voltage between the off-load terminal voltage and the on-load terminal voltage; comparing the differential voltage to a differential-voltage limit value to determine whether the capacity of the electric supply line is sufficient to operate the assembly.
