28VDC Operating Circuit (cont.)
“FAULT LATCHED,
OVERLOAD”.
A. There is too much load on the
28VDC circuit.
A. Reduce the load at the aircraft.
B. A faulty connection exists
between the shunt resistor (R5)
D. A faulty connection exists
between the shunt resistor (R5)
and the output cable, or between
the shunt resistor and the
negative bus of the TR diodes.
“28VDC CIRCUIT
OVERHEATED”.
overheated.
A. Allow the 28VDC circuit to cool
for 10 minutes before continuing
usage of the DC output. Reduce
the load at the aircraft.
B. A faulty connection exists
between thermal switch (S30) and
5. Pressing the GREEN button to
activate the 28VDC output causes
the GCM to display
A. A faulty connection to the coil
of the input contactor (terminals
X+ and Y- on K19) to the TR.
B. The contactor (K19) is faulty.
B. Test the contactor in question
by applying 24VDC across its coil
(X+ and Y- terminals). Replace
the failed contactor if it does not
C. A faulty connection between
terminal 2 on the contactor (K19)
D. The GCM2 is defective.
6. The 28VDC output voltage is
lower than expected.
A. A poor ground connection
exists between the generator
neutral and 28VDC negative bus.
B. The DC voltage setting within
the GCM is set too low.
B. Increase the setting. Refer to
the document TLD 102-00688.
