3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 24-20-00-700-054-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Test
Not applicable.
NOTE: As the GEN 1 was set to OFF because of a true failure, the fault confirmation is not necessary.
4. Fault Isolation
Subtask 24-20-00-810-054-D ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If the fault symptom is identified by the CFDS message CHECK IDG 1 FEEDER PIN T1, T2, T3 SHORT TO GROUND and the upper ECAM DU warning GEN 1 FAULT:
  • Do a check of the aircraft wiring for short to ground between pins A/T1, B/T2, C/T3 of the IDG 1 and pins D, E, F of the GLC 1 ASM 242201.
   (1) If the wiring is not correct:
  • Repair it.
   (2) If the wiring is correct:
     (a) If the fault continues:
Subtask 24-20-00-810-054-G ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If the fault symptom is identified by the CFDS message CHECK IDG 1 FEEDER PIN T1, T2, T3 SHORT TO GROUND and the upper ECAM DU warning GEN 1 FAULT:
  • Do a check of the aircraft wiring for short to ground between pins A/T1, B/T2, C/T3 of the IDG 1 and pins 1, 2, 3 of the generator 1 contactor-module (30XN1) ASM 242201.
   (1) If the wiring is not correct:
  • Repair it.
   (2) If the wiring is correct:
     (a) If the fault continues:
Subtask 24-20-00-860-058-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
B. Do this operational test to make sure that the system operates correctly.
   (1) Aircraft Maintenance Configuration
     (a) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits
AMM 24-41-00-861-002.
     (b) Do the EIS start procedure (Upper ECAM DU and lower ECAM DU only)
AMM 31-60-00-860-001.
   (2) On the ELEC panel 35VU:
  • push, release and push again the GEN 1 pushbutton switch (3XU1).
   (3) Do the operational check of the GPCU with the CFDS AMM 24-41-00-740-004.
   (4) Start the engine 1 AMM 71-00-00-710-003.

C. Do this test:
ACTION
RESULT
On the ECAM control panel:
  • get the ELEC page.
On the lower ECAM display unit:
  • the correct electrical parameters of GEN 1 are shown and AC 1 busbar is supplied by GEN 1.
5. Close-up

A. Put the aircraft back to its initial configuration.
   (1) Stop the engine 1 AMM 71-00-00-710-028.
   (2) On the ECAM control panel, set the UPPER DISPLAY and LOWER DISPLAY potentiometers to OFF.
   (3) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits
AMM 24-41-00-862-002.
