The invention relates to a method for distributing an electric power over a plurality of load units (14.1-14.8) of a rail vehicle (10). The aim of the invention is to provide such a method with which the adaptation complexity upon changing the configuration of the rail vehicle can be reduced. This is achieved in that the rail vehicle (10) is divided into a group of sections (12.1-12.7), wherein at least one power supply unit (16) is provided for the group, and the sections (12.1-12.7) are connected to one another in pairs by a section transition (20) via which power can be transmitted, a group of distribution priorities is defined, and a distribution priority is allocated to each load unit (14.1-14.8), the load units (14.1-14.8) are identified by virtue of a section variable (A) which assigns the load units to a section (12.1-12.7) and by virtue of a priority variable (P) which allocates the load units to a distribution priority, a power to be granted to a load unit (14.1-14.8) is ascertained in a granting process depending on a power requirement, an available power, and the allocated distribution priority, granting processes for a given priority variable (P) value and for the section variable (A) values assigned to at least one sub-group of the group of sections are carried out in a section cycle, and a priority cycle is carried out in which a section cycle is carried out for the priority variable (P) values assigned to at least one sub-group of the group of distribution priorities.
