Claim 10:
11. A non-transitory computer-readable medium configured to store instructions that, when processed by a processor, cause the processor to implement a method in a vehicle, the method comprising:
obtaining a measured battery current from a current sensor of a battery and a measured total current from a current sensor at a battery center configured to supply the current directly to one or more loads;
obtaining a generator current or a direct current-to-direct current (DC-DC) converter current from the measured total current and the measured battery current;
determining a maximum available current as a sum of a maximum available battery current and either the generator current or the DC-DC converter current; and
controlling a stop of supply of the current to one or more of the one or more loads based on a result of a comparison of the maximum available current with current draw by the one or more loads.
