Zusammenfassung:In order to improve the versatility of PCUs (24), the invention proposes a power control unit (24) that can supply hydraulic pressure and mechanical torque. To this end, the power control unit (24) comprises an electric motor (38) that is coupled to a differential output transmission (44) and a hydraulic pump (42). A switchable transmission device (40) allows the torque of the motor (38) to be redirected either to the output transmission (44), e.g. for driving high-lift devices, or to the hydraulic pump (42), e.g. for extending or retracting landing gears.
