Design And Test of High Voltage Power Electronic equipment
ARP7376
This Aerospace Recommend Practice (ARP) document provides ways of designing high voltages systems in aerospace vehicles. It is intended to provide recommended design and testing considerations associated with level 4 and 5 voltages, per AIR 7502, in aerospace electrical systems. Key areas of concern when using high voltage in aerospace applications are power conversion equipment and the components within them. The interaction between components and subsystems will be discussed. This document will also provide a basis for identifying high voltage design risks, defines areas of concern as a function of environment, and potential risk mitigation methods.
Rationale: This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice is intended to provide technical design considerations and testing methods for components and systems operating at higher voltages in an aerospace environment. This document will expand on the information provided in SAE AIR6127 Managing Higher Voltages in Aerospace Electrical Systems to optimize the design and test of components and systems operating at voltages at level 4 and 5 per AIR7502.
