An electrical drive system for an aircraft includes: at least one first and one second electrical direct voltage sources for supplying a direct voltage, and a first and a second electrical machine modules configured to convert electrical alternating voltage into mechanical movement and vice versa. The first and second modules are connected to a first and a second power inverters, respectively. The first and second inverters are connected in series and the first and the second direct voltage sources are connected in series to generate an overall direct voltage to which the inverters are connected. The power inverters each has one voltage measuring device for measuring the power inverter direct voltage present at the respective inverter and a power inverter control device for controlling the operation of the inverters in accordance with the power inverter direct voltage.
