Patent attributes
A method and power distribution system for operating in a low power consumption mode includes a primary power distribution node defining a primary distribution switch having an output and operable in a first conducting mode and a second non-conducting mode, and wherein operating in the second non-conducting mode includes a leakage current through the power distribution switch, at least one enabled electrical load downstream of the primary power distribution node, the at least one enabled electrical load connectable to the primary power distribution node by way of the primary distribution switch, and a primary power distribution node power source configured to supply power to the output of the primary distribution switch when the primary distribution switch is operating in the second non-conducting mode.
