A method of implementing an AC (100, 200, 300) alternative power distribution (PDA) assembly, wherein the ACPDA comprises a plurality of AC power distribution modules (104A-D, 204A -D, 304A-D), each connected to an respective AC load (105A-D, 205A-D, 305A-D), is to open a first switch and close a second switch in each of the AC power distribution modules ( 104A-D, 204A-D, 304A-D); start each of the respective alternating loads (105A-D, 205A-D, 305A-D); monitoring a charging current in the ACPDA (100) and obtaining an acceptable charging current in the ACPDA (100); determining whether a set of motor sensor parameters for the ACPDA (100) are within predetermined limits, and, in the case where the motor sensor parameters are within the predetermined limits, determining whether a starting period has occurred. elapsed; and in the case where the start period has elapsed, close the first switch and open the second switch in each of the AC power distribution modules (104A-D, 204A-D, 304A-D).
