1. An electrical power distribution system comprising:
at least one converter module having a converter configured to convert a first voltage to a second voltage with adjustable maximum power values available on a multiplicity of electrical output interfaces of the converter module up to a maximum module power value;
a temperature control apparatus having a temperature measuring apparatus, wherein the temperature control apparatus is configured to adapt the maximum module power value of the at least one converter module as a function of temperature of the power distribution system as measured by the temperature measuring apparatus;
a power profile management apparatus which is coupled to the converter and configured to negotiate individual power profiles with electrical consumers able to be connected to respective ones of the multiplicity of electrical output interfaces, according to which individual power profiles electrical power up to a negotiated maximum power value is provided to the consumers by the converter via the electrical output interface and which are stored in a power profile memory of the power profile management apparatus; and
an input device comprising a power factor correction circuit or a DC voltage converter, the input device feeding an input voltage to the at least one converter module;
wherein the temperature control apparatus is connected between the input device and the power profile management apparatus and is configured to create a profile of temperatures measured by the temperature measuring apparatus as a function of the maximum power values made available by the converter.
