40
Q

How can you illuminate the aircraft when you enter it and for how long

A

Through a switch located on the RH at the main entrance which provides 2 minutes illumination of two emergency lights and the cockpit entrance light. Another switch located at the cockpit entrance panel provides the same functions.
EXTRA: as soon as the passenger door is open, GND HANDLING BUS is available (entrance light power supply)

41

42
Q

What is the voltage for emergency illumination of the EXIT signs on the ceiling and the EXTERIOR lights

A

6 VDC

43
Q

What are the sources for the emergency illumination

A
  • DC STBY BUS via a voltage divider

- 6V integral batteries with a 10 minutes capacity, charged from the DC STBY BUS

44
Q

When the emergency lighting system activates, it is supplied from….or

A

from the DC STBY BUS, or if this source fails, automatically from the batteries

45
Q

With aircraft batteries supply only (2 min), the lighting is restricted to:

A
  • RH dome light, with the possibility of switching it off
  • LH three lights below the glareshield
  • Overhead panel light illuminating the pedestal
46
Q

How is the lighting with the DC NORMAL BUS activated

A
  • six lights below the glareshield

- one light overhead, illuminating the pedestal

47
Q

where is the ice evidence probe located and when does it illuminate

A

located on the Captain’s side, it illuminates when the NAV lights are switched on

48
Q

Emergency lighting switch: ARM

A

The normal switch position during flight. The emergency lighting is automatically actuated as soon as both DC generators are lost, or when DC STBY BUS voltage is

49
Q

Emergency lighting switch: ON

A

The emergency lighting comes on whether or not the power supply voltage is 28 V. The 6 V emergency batteries will be discharged only when the onboard network voltage decreases below 18 V. Batteries are charged if power supply voltage is 28 V.

50
Q

Emergency lighting switch: DISARM

A

Normal position when the aircraft is on ground. The emergency lighting is off whether or not the power supply voltage is 28 V. The DISARM caution light located on overhead panel comes on if 28 V power supply is available on aircraft network.
