7.3 [PM].[PD]: Power Distribution Module

This module manages the distribution of electrical power for internal and external use, i.e. for the device itself and its users. It comprises the reticulation system built into the structural modules, which connects a fully redundant inverter system to the battery storage units. In addition to supplying system power; the module also acts as the physical user interface. It provides charge point units for on-site users built into the vertical support poles at the back of the unit, these units can be replaced as new technology becomes available. The initial design provides for the most popular charge point formats, with the focus being the lower power consuming technology provided used by USB 3.0. It also caters for Thunderbolt,40 USB-C41 and “2-pin” to allow for devices with higher power needs most likely the requirement guest users to the site. The system is equipped with an intelligent power “throttling” feature to prevent abuse and allow access for guest users. A number of biometric readers are built into the centre vertical support poles which can be used in conjunction with the aforementioned intelligent charge system to allow guest users access to the facilities offered by the BARC system. A key controlled master control switch is provided to allow the system to be switched off physically in case of a re-boot requirement.
