Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a method and controller for controlling power allocation in an overdemand situation of at least a passenger loading bridge. A requested amount of power and an amount of power available are determined. The amount of power available and less than the amount of power required is then apportioned on a prioritized basis amongst systems of the at least a passenger loading bridge demanding power to result in a load of the at least a passenger loading bridge requiring no more than the power available and to provide sufficient power to account for one of minimum requirements, operational requirements and ideal requirements for each system based on an operational mode of the at least a passenger loading bridge. The amount of power for provision to each system is determined in dependence upon a priority of the system for the operation of the at least a passenger loading bridge in a predetermined mode of operation.
