1. A method of distributing power comprising:

  • receiving power from one or more power sources into at least one of a first subset of power terminals;

    generating a plurality of power signals at a second subset of power terminals;

    transmitting the plurality of power signals to a plurality of power sinks including a first power signal transmitted relative to a first threshold specifying compliant operation;

    monitoring a parameter of the first power signal to determine whether the parameter exceeds the first threshold;

    comparing the parameter against a first fault profile specifying a first subset of parameter values at a time interval and a second fault profile specifying a second subset of parameter values at the time interval;

    detecting the parameter has a value in either the first subset of parameter values to detect a first fault condition or the second subset of parameter values to detect a second fault condition;

    classifying the first fault condition as a first fault type and the second fault condition as a second fault type; and

    selecting a fault action as a function of the classification of either the first fault type or the second fault type.
