Q

What does 3 Phase mean

A

Common method of alternating current (AC) generation, transmission, and distribution. 3x alternating currents of same frequency. The delay between frequencies has effect of giving constant power transfer. High demand aircraft system use all three phases for more power than single phase can provide.

Q

What is the IDG

A

Integrated Drive Generator - Converts variable engine speed (n2) into a constant 12,000 RPM. (115VVAC, 3 Phase, 400Hz, 40Kva)

38
Q

Why would the GCU take a generator offline
