New generation Airbus A350XWB flies with Crane Power Solutions TRUs

Crane Aerospace & Electronics Power Solutions was selected by ECE, a Zodiac Aerospace company, to supply its Transformer Rectifier Units (TRUs) on the Electrical Power Distribution Systems (EPDS) for the Airbus A350XWB.

"We are excited to provide our high reliability, low weight and high power quality TRUs for the EPDS on the new generation A350XWB family fleet," states Ed Fuhr, Vice President, Power Solutions for Crane Aerospace & Electronics.

There are seven TRUs within the Electrical Power Distribution System. The ECE Electrical Power Distribution Systems control and monitor the electrical DC power distribution to the loads on the aircraft. The Crane TRUs provide 230VAC to 28VDC conversion / fault protection and 115VAC to 28VDC conversion / fault protection within the EPDS.
