Most parties within the industry are convinced that the more-electric systems will offer significant benefits for the aircraft in terms of weight, reliability and operating costs and a number of developments at the component level are well advanced. This trend will increase aircraft electrical power levels which are already increasing for other reasons. This paper addresses some of the issues and trends becoming apparent in aircraft electrical power systems. (9 pages)
