Connection of Cables
Fig. A-2-1 Connection of Cables
Recommended output cable to the aircraft is 2 x 4/0 (95 mm²) for continuous loads up to 400 amps (as shown
above) and 4 x 4/0 (95 mm²) for higher continuous loads.
A.3 Interlock
To ensure personnel health and safety, the converter is equipped with an interlock system. The system
ensures that the output only stays engaged as long as the plug is inserted into the aircraft receptacle. I.e. as
long as 28 VDC is present at terminal X2:F.
