The invention relates to an on-board electrical
system (1) for a vehicle with two on-board electrical
system channels (6, 12), wherein each of the on-board electrical
system channels (6, 12) is coupled or can be coupled to a power source by means of a DC-
DC converter (5, 11), and in each on-board electrical system channel (6, 12) exclusively a safety load group (8) is directly or via at least one electrical safety element (9.1 to 9.n, 13.1 to 13.n) is electrically coupled or can be coupled to the associated DC-
DC converter (5, 11). According to the invention, a comfort load group (14) is electrically coupled or can be coupled to both on-board electrical system channels (6, 12) by means of a supply circuit (15). The supply circuit (15) has a first switching arrangement with a first switch (15.1) for electrically
coupling the comfort
consumer group (14) with a first on-board network channel (6) of the on-board network channels (6, 12) and a second switching arrangement with a second switch (15.3) for the electrical
coupling of the comfort
consumer group (14) with a second on-board network channel (12) of the on-board network channels (6, 12). Furthermore, a monitoring device (10) for monitoring electrical parameters in the on-board network channels (6, 12) and a
control unit (17) coupled to the monitoring device (10) via
data transmission are provided, which is configured at least to control the first switch (15.1) and the second switch (15.3) depending on the electrical parameters of the on-board network channels (6, 12).
