DC Distribution Systems - An Overview
Abstract
This paper examines the existing and future dc distribution systems which has wide range of applications in data centers, telecommunication systems, residential homes, space crafts, electric vehicles, and aircrafts. The advantages and disadvantages of a dc distribution system are compared against their ac counterpart. Several dc distribution architectures are presented. Dc distribution systems are discussed from the cost, reliability, efficiency, and safety standpoints.
