LOAD
(cyan)
- is activated only if the APU is installed depending on the aeroplane configuration
- the load demand on the APU generator is displayed in the following format:
• “+” sign is displayed on the left of the lead digit to indicate an overload of the DC
power source
• nothing is displayed when the load is in the expected range
• leading zero is suppressed in the lead digit position
• digital number gives the rate of the load, with 1.00 equal to 100% of load examples:
• “.60” indicates that the DC generator or TRU is loaded at 60% of the maximum out-
put
• “+1.30” indicates an overload of the DC generator or TRU
8. AC EXTERNAL POWER ANNUNCIATION (green)
- displayed when an AC external power source is connected to the aeroplane and supply-
ing AC power
