Correct! Wrong!

What is the meaning of this ECAM?

There is an ECMU fault.

There is a TR overload.

There is an engine generator fault.

Correct! Wrong!

During EMER GEN automatic start up sequence:

The MAN ON p/b must be pushed to extinguish red fault light on the EMER ELEC PWR Panel.

Red fault light on EMER ELEC PWR Panel will remain on until the EMER GEN reaches its normal output.

It is not recommended to push the MAN ON p/b to confirm EMER ELEC CONFIG on the EMER ELEC PWR Panel.

Correct! Wrong!

This ECAM ELEC page shows:

GEN 4 pb is set to Off and engine 4 is running.

GEN 4 pb is set to Off and engine 4 is not running.

GEN 4 pb is set to On and engine 4 is running.

Correct! Wrong!

The EMER GEN is powered by a hydraulic system pressurized by an engine driven hydraulic pump. Pressing the LAND RECOVERY p/b switch will:

Normally recover the AC and DC LAND RECOVERY BUSES and the components for approach and landing.

Supply the landing gear.

Operate when the gear is extended.

Correct! Wrong!

The APU battery:

May be used for engine start when the APU is not available.

Can be used as a backup for BAT 1 or BAT 2.

Is dedicated to APU start only.

Correct! Wrong!

What is the meaning of this ECAM?

TR 2 is faulty.

DC 2 BUS is not powered due to a short circuit.

BAT 2 is faulty.

Correct! Wrong!

Loss of one generator or TR (except, if lost is due to over current detection) provides:

No effects on flight management.

APU generator required operational.

Loss of the corresponding AC or DC bus.

Correct! Wrong!

Two Electrical Contactor Management Units (ECMU) provide:

Control of TR contactors.

Control AC and DC contactors (except for TR contactors).

Control and monitoring AC and DC contactors (except TR which have their own control), galley shedding and no break power transfer.

Correct! Wrong!

The MAINT BUS switch is located:

On the overhead system panel in the cockpit.

On the Purser's Control Panel in the FWD cabin.

On the FWD Circuit Breaker Panel behind the cockpit.

Correct! Wrong!

One function of the Electrical Contactor Management Units (ECMU) is:

Control of AC and DC bus ties, except TR contactor.

Automatic management of contactors.

TR contactors monitoring.

Correct! Wrong!

The Emergency generator is powered by:

A Ram Air Turbine (RAT).

The Static Inverter.

The GREEN hydraulic system when pressurized by engine 1 or 4 driven hydraulic pump or by a Ram Air Turbine.

Correct! Wrong!

According to this ECAM ELEC DC page:

There is no degradation in the capability of DC system.

The Static Inverter is being powered because TR 1 is not powered.

The BAT 2 is discharging at a rate of 4 A.

Correct! Wrong!

On C/B ECAM page, the pilot reads "NORMAL". What does it mean?

No fault detected in Electronics Equipment Bay.

There are no CB tripped or pulled.

Electric supply to CB is normal.

Correct! Wrong!

According to these indications which AC BUS supplies the ESS TR?

AC 1-2 BUS.

AC 1-1 BUS.

AC ESS.

Correct! Wrong!

With APU GEN and external powers supplying the network:

APU supplies AC ESS only.

APU supplies AC 1-1 and AC 1-2 only.

APU is supplying left side, external power A is supplying the right side.

Correct! Wrong!

As shown on this ECAM ELEC page, which BUS is normally supplying the ESS TR?

AC ESS BUS.

AC 1-1.

AC 2-4.

Correct! Wrong!

In flight, APU not running, an engine generator has failed. What is supplying the corresponding AC BUS?

The other generator on the same side as the failed generator.

Corresponding AC BUS is not powered. APU must be started to recover AC BUS.

The other side outer engine generator.

Correct! Wrong!

Each engine generator supplies power to:

Only its assigned BUS in all cases.

The BUS on the opposite side in normal operation.

Its assigned AC BUS in normal operation.

Correct! Wrong!

When ECAM shows "ELEC ECMU 1 FAULT":

ECMU 1 controls Generator Line Contactors (GLC 3 and 4) and you should reset generator 3 and 4.

ECMU 1 controls GLC 1 and 2 and you should try to reset corresponding generators.
