/Electrical Monitoring System And Method For Vtol Aircraft
Abstract

A method for monitoring an electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicle (eVTOL) includes receiving current and voltage signals indicative of electric power supplied to an electric load of the eVTOL and identifying an event associated with the electric load or with a component associated with the electric load based on the current and voltage signals. The method also includes determining a change in a condition of the electric load or of the component connected to the electric load based on the identified event and outputting a notification based on the change in the condition of the electric load or with the component connected to the electric load.
