16
Q
  1. The correct statement is:
A

D. All of the above.

A. The illumination of the engine START DISG button is a function of the panel lights control NIGHT-DIM switch.
B. The generator switches are placed in the OFF position for an EPU start.
C. A failed left 225 amp current limiter prevents starting of the left engine.

17
Q
  1. With the electrical system operating normally (both generators on the line with the
    BATT switch in BATT):
A

A. The generator control units (GUs) serve to automatically regulate, paral-lel, and protect the generators.

18
Q
  1. Placing the BATT switch in EMER with the generators online:
A

B. Causes the emergency bus to be powered by the battery.

19
Q
  1. Loss of both generators:
A

D. R and L GEN OFF annunciators, MASTER CAUTION RESET and MASTER WARNING RESET switchlights illuminate.

20
Q
  1. During engine start, the speed sensing switch terminates the start sequence thus removing power from the:
A

B. Electric fuel boost pump, ignitors, and
the starter-generator.

21
Q
  1. The BATT O’TEMP annunciator comes on steady and remains steady after the MASTER WARNING RESET switchlight is depressed:
A

B. Move the BATT switch to EMER and
observe the volts and amps.

22
Q
  1. Both engines are started and the AFT J-BOX LMT annunciator is observed illuminated:
A

C. A 225 amp current limiter is blown and must be repaired before flight.

23
Q
  1. The battery DISCONNECT switch:
A

D. All of the above.

A. Is used for a stuck start relay.
B. Is used for a stuck battery relay during battery overtemp.
C. Can only be used when the BATT switch is in BATT.
