The artificial gravity is a byproduct of the inertial dampeners. You don’t mess with the inertial dampeners unless you want the crew the slam into a bulkhead at .999C.
This is realistic in that they divert power from anything before gravity generation.
“Why can’t we route power from gravitational engines?”
“The show’s budget cannae afford such excess, Cap’n”
“What’s that, Scotty?”
“The- uh- the dilithium core only works properly in a gravity field, Cap’n. We’d lose more power than we’d save.”
“Ah yes, that makes sense”

They could, because grav plating holds a residual charge so they’ll be able to maintain gravity for a period of time before people start floating
