Q

What does a battery load indication of +1.05 indicate?

A

Overcharging by 5% over maximum charge rate

17
Q

What is the maximum output rating of the DC generators?

A

300 amps

18
Q

What is the maximum output rating of the TRUs

A

200 amps

19
Q

When does the BBPU - Breaker Bar Protection Unit react to a main bus fault?

A

High generator output over 450 amps

20
Q

What does the BBPU do when it detects a main bus fault?

A

Opens the ties and isolates the affected bus

21
Q

How many inverters are there?

A

three

22
Q

What is the purpose of the inverters?

A

Converts 28 volt DC to 115 volt single phase AC

23
Q

What are the step down transformers for?

A

Convert 115 V AC to 25 V AC

24
Q

What is the indication of a failure of the 26 V AC or the 115 V AC bus?

A

Caution light illuminates for 26 V AC but no indication for the 115 V AC failure

25
Q

What will happen if an inverter fails?

A

Parallel control box disconnects failed inverter and related caution light comes on and the remaining inverters provide necessary power

26
Q

What is the indication of a fault on the battery temperature display sensor and the over temperature sensor?

A

Amber light comes on at the 60 degree point, over temperature SENSOR FAIL light comes on

27
Q

Will all buses be powered if DC generator fails?

A

Yes, DC Logic closes appropriate (Main) bus tie

28
Q

Will all buses be powered if both DC generators fail?

A

Yes, DC Logic closes appropriate bus ties and power comes through the TRUs

29
Q

What action should be taken as per the QRH with a double DC generator failure?

A

1 and 2 Generator Reset, Batteries off, Master off, Land as soon as possible

30
Q

What will occur if a subsequent TRU fails after losing both DC generators?

A

Total power failure, loss of cabin pressurization, battery on, descend and land as soon as possible

31
Q

Will all buses be powered if a TRU fails?

A

Yes, DC Logic closes appropriate bus ties

32
Q

Will all buses be powered if both TRUs fail?

A

Yes, DC Logic closes appropriate bus ties

33
Q

Will all buses be powered if an AC generator fails?

A

Yes, Other AC Gen takes up the load

34
Q

Which battery is the Hot battery bus connected to?

A

Main (Right) Battery

35
Q

Can the BBPU disconnect the main bus tie if the main bus tie switch is on?

A

Yes
