ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM (EDS)
Starting with power generation, ending at loads, the
EDS is designed to make electrical continuity almost
impossible to break. Though backup systems exist
even for total loss of power, electricity makes it
easier to perform worst-case scenario functions such
as preventing a reactor meltdown, removing floodwater,
a backup source of propulsion, removing unsafe air,
and even lighting, a necessary factor in helping the
crew deal with emergencies.
