BS G 248:1993

This standard BS G 248:1993 Specification for hybrid remote power controllers. General requirements is classified in these ICS categories:

• 49.060 Aerospace electric equipment and systems

This International Standard specifies the general design and performance requirements of hybrid remote power controllers for aircraft. They consist of an electromagnetic device or a combined electromagnetic/solid-state device, for load switching, and a solid-state control circuit for control of the load-switching devices.

On aircraft, remote power controllers are used to close and open the electrical circuit and to protect wiring and equipment in the event of overload or short-circuit conditions.

The load-switching device and solid-state control circuit may be mounted in a common enclosure or may be discrete inter-connected units.

NOTE 1 This International Standard recognizes the need to have hybrid units which are, as far as practical, interface-compatible with fully solid-state power controllers.
