ED-296 -- High Voltage Standards and Power Quality for VTOL Applications

What it is

EUROCAE ED-296 provides guidance for using high-voltage power systems on VTOL aircraft and specifies minimum performance expectations for those systems.

Why it matters

Many eVTOL architectures depend on high-voltage electrical distribution for propulsion. ED-296 addresses the design-assurance and power-quality aspects that help demonstrate the system can perform its intended functions under normal aeronautical operating conditions.
