1.9 Electrical System
The aircraft's electrical system consists of a 12 Volt DC circuit controlled by a Master switch located on the instrument
panel. An integrated AC generator provides electricity and a 12 Volt battery placed in the fuselage or in the engine
compartment. The generator light is located on the right side of the instrument panel.
WARNING
If the Ignition Switches are ON, an accidental movement of the propeller may start the engine with possible danger for
bystanders.

1.9.1 Generator light
Generator light (red) illuminates for the following conditions:
• Generator failure
• Failure of regulator/rectifier, with consequent over voltage sensor set off
•
NOTE
The battery can support energy requirements for approximately 20 minutes.
1.9.2 Voltmeter
The voltmeter indicates voltage on the bus bar. The normal range is from 12 to 14 volts. There is a red radial line at 10
volts.
