TASK 24-23-00-810-810-A
Failure of the APU Generator


1. Possible Causes
  • GEN-APU [8XS]
  • wiring
2. Job Set-up Information
 A. Referenced Information
REFERENCE
DESIGNATION
ASM 242301
AMM 24-23-51-000-001
Removal of the APU Generator
AMM 24-23-51-400-001
Installation of the APU Generator
AMM 24-41-00-861-002
Energize the Aircraft Electrical Circuits from the External Power
AMM 24-41-00-862-002
De-energize the Aircraft Electrical Circuits Supplied from the External Power
3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 24-23-00-869-051-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Test
Not applicable.
NOTE: As the APU GEN was set to OFF because of a true failure, the fault confirmation is not necessary.
4. Fault Isolation
Subtask 24-23-00-810-058-B ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If the fault symptom is identified by the CFDS message GEN APU (8XS) /WRG: GEN APU PMG and the upper ECAM-DU warning APU GEN FAULT:
   (1) If the fault continues:
  • do a check and repair the wiring ASM 242301 for a short to shield, a short to ground, a short circuit or an open circuit between:
    . pin A/12 of the APU generator and pin C/10 of the GAPCU
    . pin A/13 of the APU generator and pin C/11 of the GAPCU
    . pin A/14 of the APU generator and pin C/9 of the GAPCU
    . pins C/9, C/10, C/11 and pin C/7 of the GAPCU.
Subtask 24-23-00-860-053-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
B. Make sure that the aircraft electrical circuits operate correctly in APU configuration.
   (1) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits from the APU AMM 24-41-00-861-002.
   (2) Let the APU generator operate for five minutes to make sure that it operates correctly.
   (3) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits from the APU AMM 24-41-00-862-002.
