40
A constant frequency generator (CFG) comes on line at an input shaft speed between 15,138
and 15,238 revolutions (rotations) per minute (rpm), or about what percent of the proprotor speed
(Nr)?
71
At oil temperatures from –54 degrees Celsius (C) to 75 degrees C, the variable frequency
generators (VFG) 3 and 4 are rated at how many kilovolt amperes (KVA)?
80
Automatic alternating current (AC) power system control is provided by the
generator control units (GCU).
What components of the alternating current (AC) distribution system provide current
protection for the suite of integrated radio frequency countermeasures system (SIRFC) and the
aircrew eye respirator protection system (AERPS)?
Circuit breakers
What alternating current (AC) distribution system component contains contactors, current
sensors, and terminal boards to connect, route, and sense aircraft electrical power?
Power distribution panel (PDP
What rigid conductive materials jumper electrical power to groups of electrical components
and are pre–shaped to fit in prescribed positions internal to the panel or flexible wiring within the
circuit breaker panels?
Bus bars.
Which components are cooled by the avionics cooling system?
DC regulated converter (CV)1 and CV2
In the direct current (DC) power system, what solid–state device contains the timing, logic
circuits, and relay that automatically disconnects the aircraft battery from the ESS/BAT BUS to
prevent excess battery drain during ground servicing?
Battery relay control unit.
What facilitates the connection/disconnection of the aircraft battery to the MAINT BUS?
RCCB 2.
What direct current (DC) power distribution system component provides the bus health
monitor function for DC BUS 2, DC BUS 3, and the essential/battery BUS?
Avionics bay interface unit (ABIU)
How many feed–through capacitor filters are contained in the direct current (DC) power
distribution system?
10
What systems are not powered by the external power system?
Nacelle ice protection systems.
When external electrical power is connected, but not applied to the aircraft electrical
system, the external power box and text is displayed on the cockpit display unit (CDU) as
EXT CON
The numbers used for reference designators in the wiring system for system, subsystem, and
sub–sub system identification are based on the
unified numbering system
In direct current (DC) power, what type of cable wiring uses the airframe ground for power
return?
Single
What tracer color is used with the integrated wiring system (IWS) to identify position 1?
Orange
What kind of wire harness consists of both conventional (individually shielded and/or
unshielded) wires and integrated wiring system (IWS) wires?
Hybrid.
How many zones does the flight compartment primary lighting have?
4
The three electroluminescent 115 volts alternating current (VAC) lights that provide an
alternate lighting source for illuminating the instrument panel are the
instrument panel secondary lights
What flight compartment lighting system mode of operation has the maximum brightness
levels set for affected cockpit lights?
DAY NORM.
What types of cabin lights are identical and interchangeable? Each light contains two
incandescent lamps, one with an opaque lens and one with a green night vision imaging system
Dome
Operating power and intensity control for the passenger compartment dome lighting and
passenger compartment panel lighting is provided by the
secondary lighting control unit (SLCU).
What is the length, in inches, of the shorter formation lighting units that are installed on the
inboard top of each nacelle and on top of each aft wing fairing?
