.
The airplane is fitted with a 28-volt direct-current electrical system.
Electrical supply is obtained from various power supplies:
-
a starter generator,
-
a standby generator,
-
a battery,
-
a ground power unit, via a plug, located on left side.
Connection relays, main bus bar, generator regulation and protection systems and
control logic systems are grouped in the electrical power system box located in the
front baggage compartment upper section.
Electrical system indicating is displayed on the MFD and monitoring is ensured by
CAS messages.
On ground, when the crash lever is positioned in the UP position (SOURCE
selector in the OFF position), the battery supplies the electrical power system
through the BATT BUS. A Power Up Built In Test (P-BIT) of the EPS internal
functions is performed to verify the operating status. In case of failure detection,
the "EPS – Service required" message appears in the message window of the
GTC.
