ABSTRACT:
Methods, apparatus, and products are disclosed for dynamically configuring overcurrent protection in a power supply for components of an electrically powered system, including summing by a master service processor, during powered operation of the system, the present power requirements of components presently installed in the system and setting by the master service processor an overcurrent trip point of the power supply in dependence upon the sum of the present power requirements of the components.
