3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 24-20-00-869-127-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 24-20-00-810-244-B ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If the fault symptom is identified by the CFDS message WRG: FEEDER/ IDG1 (E1-4000XU)/GCU1(1XU1) and the upper ECAM-DU warning GEN 1 FAULT:
   (1) Do a visual inspection and repair or replace as necessary:
  • Generator 1 contactor-module 30XN1
  • Terminal block 1999VT
  • Terminal block 400VT1
  • Terminal blocks T1, T2, T3 and N of IDG 1
  • Receptacle 440VC1 .
   (2) Replace the GCU-1 [1XU1] AMM 24-22-34-000-001 and AMM 24-22-34-400-001.
     (a) If the fault continues:
     (b) If the fault continues:
  • Do a check and repair the IDG1 feeders ASM 242201 for a short to ground between:
    . Terminal T1 of the IDG 1 and the ground
    . Terminal T2 of the IDG 1 and the ground
    . Terminal T3 of the IDG 1 and the ground.
Subtask 24-20-00-710-176-B ** 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) In the cockpit, on the ELEC panel 35VU:
  • Push, release and push again the GEN 1 pushbutton switch (3XU1).

   (5) Do this test:
ACTION
RESULT
On the ECAM control panel:
  • Push the ELEC key to get the ELEC page.
On the lower ECAM DU:
  • The correct electrical parameters of GEN 1 are shown and GEN 1 supplies the AC1 busbar.
