Q

On EMER GEN conditions, batteries cannot be charged. True or False ?

A

True

17
Q

EMER GEN
When the aircraft is on ground :
- Below XXXkt, DC BAT BUS is automatically connected to the batteries.
- Below XXX kt, AC ESS BUS is automatically shed, leading to the loss of all display units.

A

100kt
50kt

18
Q

Autonomy flight on BAT only ?

A

30min

19
Q

Meaning of green breaker ?

A

ECAM monitored
After 1 min message on ECAM

20
Q

Meaning of black breaker ?

A

Not ECAM monitored
Only associated with system fault message

21
Q

Meaning of yellow breaker ?

A

May increase BAT life if tripped (old aircraft)

22
Q

Meaning of red breaker ?

A

WTB. No reset.

23
Q

How many times can you reset a breaker ?

A

1 time. Follow procedure

24
Q

CLR pb effect on breaker ?

A

Inhibits any CB tripped on same panel

25
Q

EMER CANCEL pb effect on breaker ?

A

Inhibits caution

26
Q

On ground, if only the batteries are powering the emergency generation network, APU start is only available when the speed is below XX kt ?

A

100kt

27
Q

Normal electrical distribution ? (Diagram)

A

GEN 1 — AC 1 bus — TR 1— DC 1 bus — DC BAT bus —DC ESS bus BAT 1 BAT 2
| | | |
AC ESS bus DC ESS bus Hot bus 1 Hot bus 2
+ Shed + Shed

GEN 2 — AC 2 bus — TR 2— DC 2 bus

28
Q

When no other power is available in flight, the static inverter converts _____ power to AC power for the AC ESS bus; and ______ powers the DC ESS bus

A

BAT 1
BAT 2

29
Q

When BAT FAULT light will illuminate ?

A

Charging current increase abnormally

30
Q

Is it possible to parallel generators?

A

No

31
Q

What is the significance of the circuit breakers on the overhead panel?

A

They may be operational in the Emergency Electrical Configuration.

32
Q

If a TR 1 fails, show distribution diagram ?

A

GEN 1 — AC 1
|
AC ESS + shed — TR ESS — DC ESS

GEN 2 — AC 2 — TR 2 — DC 2 — DC BAT — DC 1

33
Q

In flight, in case of loss of all main generators, EMERGENCY GENERATOR not running, the STATIC INVERTER supplies which bus ?

A

AC ESS bus ( APU, ENG start…)

34
Q

What happens during the EMER GEN TEST if AC NORMAL BUSES are supplied ?

A

EMER GEN is supplied by Blue electrical pump if operating
+
AC ESS and DC ESS are connected to EMER GEN

(If only the batteries supply the aircraft:
The static inverter powers the AC ESS BUS.)

35
Q

When is the DC BAT BUS supplied by the batteries ?

A

APU starting
and
AC1 & 2 lost with speed< 100kt

36
Q

In emergency configuration, when is AC ESS SHED and DC ESS SHED BUS automatically shed ?

A

During RAT deployment

37
Q

Is the ESS TR used when a TR is faulty ?

A

Yes

38
Q

When GEN 1 or GEN2is selected to “OFF” position. Does GEN are still energized or de-energized ?

A

De-energized and line contactor opens
