Not applicable.
NOTE: As the GEN 2 was set to OFF because of a true failure, the fault confirmation is not necessary.
4. Fault Isolation
Subtask 24-20-00-810-108-D ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If the fault symptom is identified by the CFDS message DELTA CURRENT GEN2 CHANNEL or OVERCURRENT GEN2 CHANNEL and the upper ECAM-DU warnings GEN 2 FAULT and AC BUS 2 FAULT:
  • Do a check of the feeders ASM 242201 for a short circuit or a short to ground between:
    . Pin L1 of the Current Transformer Assembly (CTA) (51XU2) and pin 1 of the generator 2 contactor module (30XN2)
    . Pin L2 of the CTA and pin 2 of the generator 2 contactor module
    . Pin L3 of the CTA and pin 3 of the generator 2 contactor module.
   (1) If the feeders are not correct:
  • Repair or replace the feeders as necessary.
   (2) If the feeders are correct:
  • Do a check of the power distribution feeders ASM 242203 for a short circuit or a short to ground between:
    . Pins 4, 5 and 6 of the generator 2 contactor module (30XN2) and the primary circuit breakers of bus 2XP
    . Pin 4 and pin 7 of the generator 2 contactor module
    . Pin 5 and pin 8 of the generator 2 contactor module
    . Pin 6 and pin 9 of the generator 2 contactor module
    . Pins 7, 8 and 9 of the generator 2 contactor module and the lightning strike protection module (19XU2).
     (a) If the feeders are not correct:
  • Repair or replace the feeders as necessary.
     (b) If the feeders are correct:
       1 If the fault continues:

C. 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) In the cockpit, on the ELEC panel 35VU:
  • Push, release and push again the GEN 2 pushbutton switch (3XU2).
   (3) Do the BITE test of the GAPCU AMM 24-41-00-740-002.
   (4) Start engine 2 AMM 71-00-00-860-823.
   (5) Do this test:
