What equipment is required on the ground to make an aeronautical system or end item of equipment operational in its intended environment?
support equipment (SE)
Aviation Support equipment is equipment that is primarily covered by what program?
the Aircraft Maintenance and material Readiness List (AMMRL) program
how is newly constructed and modified support equipment identified?
By MIL-STD-875A
What is now the designation for the MD-3?
A/S32A-31
How is support equipment categorized?
As common (general-purpose) and peculiar (special-purpose)
How is SE normally identified?
Either as powered or nonpowered and avionic SE and nonavionic SE
what does avionic SE (common and peculiar) include?
All equipment of an electronics nature used for, but not limited to, the testing, troubleshooting, alignment, or calibration of aircraft systems or components, general-purpose electronic test equipment and automatic test equipment.
What does the DC generator in the NC-8A power plant provide?
28 volts, 500 amperes continuously
or
28 volts, 750 amperes intermittently
Where are the controls and instruments for the generators located on the NC-8A power plant?
to the operator’s right
What is the primary hazard associated with the NC-8A?
the tendency for the SE operator to drive off with the power cables still connected to the aircraft
How is the NC-10 powered?
by a Detroit diesel 6-cylinder, 2-cycle engine
What are the climatic conditions of the operation with the NC-10C?
From -18F to 120F and under relative humidity up to 100% and will operate efficiently at altitude from sea level to 8,000ft
What are the general hazards when operating the NC-10?
High voltage, hot cables, noise, noxious gases and exhaust heat
How do mobile motor generators differ from the mobile electric power plants?
They are not self-contained and require an external source of electrical power for operation
Which 2 mobile motor generators are primarily used in hangars on shore stations, or on the hangar decks of aircraft carriers?
The MMG-1A and MMG-2
Which generator set provides115/200 volts, 3 phase, 400 hertz ac, and 28 volt DC power for ground maintenance, calibration, and support for various types of aircraft systems and equipment?
the MMG-1A
What does operation of the MMG-1A unit require?
a 3 phase, 60 hertz, 220 or 440 AC external power source and is used both aboard ship and ashore.
Which generator weighs 4120 lbs, is 7’10” long, 4’2” wide, and 3’6” high?
The MMG-1A
Which generator provides 120/208 volt, 400 hz AC power, and 28 volt DC power for use in ground maintenance, calibration, and support for all fighter/interceptor tyoes of aircraft equipment
The MMG-2
How is the refrigerant 22(R-22) described?
Nonflannable, nontoxic, nonexplosive, and odorless; it displaces oxygen in the air and if enough is inhaled it can cause asphyxiation.
Which mobile air conditioner is driven by an industrial diesel engine, self contained and trailer mounted?
The A/M32C-17
