Q

How long will each ADIRU stay on battery power?

A

ADIRS 2 and 3 will remain on battery power for 5 minutes to hold alignment until a generator can be restored. ADIRU 1 (ADIRU 3 if captain selected ATT HDG CAPT 3) will remain on battery power until generator power is restored or battery #2 fails
