AC Power System
Each AC power system consists of a transfer bus, a main bus, two galley busses, and a ground service bus. Transfer bus 1 also supplies power to the AC standby bus. If the AC source powering either transfer bus fails or is disconnected, the transfer bus can be powered by any available source through the tie bus with the bus tie breakers (BTBs).
With the airplane on the ground and both generator control switches OFF, or with both engines shut down, selecting the GRD PWR switch ON connects external power to both transfer busses. Likewise, selecting either APU GEN switch ON connects APU power to both transfer busses. Whichever source is selected last powers both busses. It is not possible to power one transfer bus with external power and one transfer bus with APU power.
The transfer busses can be powered from the engine generators by momentarily positioning the related generator switch to ON. This closes the related generator circuit breaker (GCB) and connects the generator to the transfer bus. Whenever external power or APU is powering both transfer busses, and engine generator power is applied to its onside transfer bus, external power or APU continues to supply power to the remaining transfer bus.
In flight, each engine generator normally powers its own transfer bus. If an engine generator is no longer supplying power, the BTBs automatically close to allow the other engine generator to supply both transfer busses through the tie bus and BTBs. The APU can power either or both busses through the BTBs.
The system also incorporates an automatic generator on–line feature in case the airplane takes off with the APU powering both transfer busses. If the APU is either shut down or fails, the engine generators are automatically connected to their related transfer busses. This action occurs only once in flight and only under the circumstances described above.
Bus Tie System
Either generator or the APU can supply power to both transfer busses. If the BUS TRANS switch is in the AUTO position and the source powering the transfer bus is disconnected or fails, the source powering the opposite transfer bus automatically picks up the unpowered transfer bus through the BTBs.

Automatic Load Shedding (Engine Generators)
YA613 - YC413 For single generator operation, the system is designed to shed electrical load incrementally based on actual load sensing. The galleys on transfer bus 2 are shed first; if an overload is still sensed, the galleys on transfer bus 1 are shed; if overload still exists, main bus 1 and main bus 2 are shed. When configuration changes to more source capacity (two generator operation), automatic load restoration of the main busses and galley busses occurs; manual restoration of galley power can be attempted by moving the GALLEY Power Switch to OFF, then back ON.
YD651 - YK104 For single generator operation, the system is designed to shed electrical load incrementally based on actual load sensing. The galleys and main bus on transfer bus 2 are shed first; if an overload is still sensed, the galleys and main bus on transfer bus 1 are shed; if overload still exists, the IFE buses are shed. When configuration changes to more source capacity (two generator operation), automatic load restoration of the main busses, galley busses and IFE buses occurs; manual restoration of galley and main bus power can be attempted by moving the CAB/UTIL Power Switch to OFF, then back ON.
APU Automatic Load Shedding
YA613 - YC413 In flight, if the APU is the only source of electrical power, all galley busses are automatically shed. If electrical load still exceeds design limits, both main busses are also automatically shed. On the ground, the APU attempts to carry a full electrical load. If an overload condition is sensed, the APU sheds galley busses first and then main busses until the load is within limits. Manual restoration of galley power can be attempted by moving the GALLEY Power Switch to OFF, then back ON.
