ELECTRICAL POWER-General
The Electrical System consists of three separate subsystems:
• DC (Direct Current):
28 VDC from Starter/Generators,
24 VDC from Batteries.
• AC (Alternating Current), constant frequency:
115 VAC (400 Hz) single-phase from Static Inverters,
26 VAC (400 Hz) single-phase from Static Inverters.
• ACW (Alternating Current Wild), variable frequency:
115 / 200 VAC (341 - 488 Hz) three-phase from ACW Generators (frequency depends on Np).
Note: ACW generation is basically used for the De-icing and Heating Systems, and electro-hydraulic Pumps.
DC and ACW generations are provided by Engine driven Generators.
ACW and DC feeders run in the wing leading edge and under the ceiling roof to the Electrical Racks.
DC generation by main and emergency Batteries is normally utilized to provide stored energy during normal ground operations, and in
flight in the event of a total loss of the DC Primary Generation System.
AC constant frequency is provided by Inverters which convert DC into AC.
A Transformer Rectifier Unit (TRU) transforms ACW into DC for emergency purposes.

The electrical components are located in the Electrical Racks, except for Batteries which are located on the floor of the Avionics Racks.

CONTROLS AND INDICATORS-AC DC Control Panel

Electrical system indications are located on Main Electrical Power Control Panel and on Multi Function displays (AC/DC electrical SD
page).
The "DC GEN" pushbutton controls the energization of associated generator and the resetting of the protection system after failure:
• ON: (pushbutton depressed without lighting), the associated generator is energized and the associated generator contactor
closes if the network electrical parameters are normal.
On MFD, state 1 is displayed.
The "FAULT" light of the "DC GEN" pushbutton illuminates amber and the CCAS is activated in case of:
• A protection trip is initiated by the associated GCU. If it is caused by an under speed generator, the reset will be automatic. In
other cases, a manual reset has to be performed.
• An opening of a generator contactor except if the pushbutton is selected OFF. In both cases, the BUS TIE CONTACTOR closes
and the affected DC BUS is automatically supplied from the remaining generator.
The "OFF" light of the "DC GEN" pushbutton illuminates white when the pushbutton is released and the associated generator is de-
energized and associated contactor is open.

Note: When DC HOT BUS voltage is invalid, the readout is replaced by two amber dashes at the left of the V unit label.
• OVRD: ensures busses are supplied by their respective battery in case of dual DC GEN loss. This position is protected by a
toggle guard.
• ON or OVRD: with TRU connected (Dual DC GEN loss). The TRU supplies ESS BUS, EMER BUS and STBY BUSSES (DC and
AC through INV 1).

"INV FAULT" caution lights are extinguished when associated inverters are in normal condition.
The "INV FAULT" caution light illuminates amber and the CCAS is activated when an under / over voltage is detected at the output of
the associated inverter. This may be caused by an inverter failure or a power supply loss.

On MFD, State 1 is displayed when AC STBY BUS is supplied by an inverter.
On MFD, State 2 is displayed when AC STBY BUSSES are shedded.


The "BTC" guarded pushbutton controls the AC Bus Tie Relay (BTR) which, when it is closed, connects both main AC BUSSES:
