In this paper, a detailed technical description of a new hardware-based integrated power system testbed is presented. The testbed consists of an AC generation and propulsion system that is coupled to a DC zonal distribution system. A primary objective of the testbed is to provide a resource to the academic and industrial community by providing a non-proprietary system on which to demonstrate controls, survivability algorithms, and validate computer-aided design (CAD) tools.
