    The new [3] [when?] 60 Hz AC EmPower system provides more power than the DC system. [4] The AC EmPower system converts aircraft 400 Hz AC or wild frequency power to standard 60 Hz AC to prevent additional stresses in laptop chargers already stressed by reduced cooling at altitude. Note that laptops on this system will still charge batteries.
