LRUs. It is necessary to wear wrist-straps for the
SAFETY PRACTICES installation/replacement of OBRMs.
Handling Precautions for Devices Sensitive to ElectroStatic  The necessary standard precautions for each LRU are given in
Discharge (ESD) the Maintenance Procedure (MP) in the applicable
removal/installation procedure. For example, “Put blanking
caps on the fixed connector and on the LRU connector(s)”.
CAUTION: OBEY THESE PRECAUTIONS TO PREVENT
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) DAMAGE TO THE
COMPONENTS:
- STAY ON A CONDUCTIVE SURFACE THAT IS
ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED.
- USE A CONDUCTIVE WRIST-STRAP THAT IS
ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED (CONNECTED TO A
BONDING-POINT NEAR THE WORK AREA).
- BEFORE YOU USE THE TOOLS, MOMENTARILY HOLD
THEM AGAINST AN ELECTRICAL GROUND TO RELEASE
STATIC ELECTRICITY.
There are no special precautions or instructions related to handling
because:
 The Line Replaceable Units (LRUs) have sufficient protection
to prevent ESD damage.
 No handling precautions to prevent ESD are necessary unless
the LRU housing is open. For example, antistatic or conductive
protective caps are not necessary for the connectors on the
LRU housing (standard caps are sufficient).
 No LRUs have Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) that are
sensitive to ESD.

Maintenance in Storm Conditions - Maintenance Practices

During storm conditions or when there is atmospheric electrical
activity, you must:
 Make sure that the aircraft is grounded.
 Stop all ground servicing operations external to the aircraft
(refueling, etc.).
 Disconnect all the other external connections (external power
supply, etc.).
 Remove or disconnect the headsets.
 Make sure that you do not touch metal parts, equipment or
connections to the aircraft.
If a lightning strike occurs, do an inspection after the lightning strike.

 Station for nacelle and pylon
 Zoning must be simple and logical.
 It must be usable by all airlines as a framework to do Major Sub-Zones
maintenance tasks.
 The zoning must be adaptable to current and future aircraft. These are divisions of the Major Zones, for example 100 is divided
into 110, 120, 130, 140, etc. The Major Sub-Zone/numbering

The system consists of Major Zones, Major Sub-Zones and Zones.
Each Zone is based on a three-figure number. The zones, where

spars, major bulkheads, cabin floor, control surface boundaries, skin, These are divisions of Major Sub-Zones, for example 120 is divided

Left or Right Zones

A single figure indicates, where applicable, left or right hand zones.
An odd number indicates a left-hand or center zone and an even
number indicates a right-hand zone, for example:
 131 Left side or 731 left main gear

 132 right side or 741 right main gear
 133 center zone
When feasible, odd numbers are given to the zones to the left of the
centerlines fuselage or nacelle centerlines, and even numbers to the
zone to the right of the centerlines. The sequence of zone numbers
should preferably run from inboard to outboard, front to rear in the
wing; forward to aft and away from the floor line in the fuselage and
from root to tip in the vertical tail.
NOTE: If no side differentiation is necessary (for example, bilge area),
the odd numbering for the "center zone" is used.
In addition, this chapter identifies the following areas:
 Pressurized Areas
 Skydrol Areas
 Vibration Areas
 Hot Areas
 SWAMP Areas
 Fuel Areas and Fuel Vapor Areas

A. Functional Item Numbers (FIN)
The electrical equipment items on the aircraft are identified by

a unique identifier, designated Functional Item Number (FIN).
The composition of the FIN differs between the various Airbus
families.

designations can be written as follows:

C. Electrical Flight Control System (EFCS)
The EFCS harnesses have specific connectors (VC).

These connectors make the interface between:
- The different EFCS harnesses.

- The EFCS harnesses and equipment.
- The EFCS harnesses and the different VU panels to
which they are connected.
The EFCS harnesses and equipment are clearly identified by a

identify the wire and E0248 to identify the extremities

labels printed in black on pink background (or on red
background for metallic labels). Identification of each item is
made by a permanent label that shows the Functional Item
Number (FIN).

Standard Mechanical Torque (Cont…)
NOTE: No torque value correction is applicable if the adaptor is at 90

deg. to the torque wrench.
When the torque wrench and the adaptor are not aligned, use this
formula:
- Measure the length (C) between the handle application point
and the bolt axis.
- Do the adjustment of the torque wrench to get torque-wrench
dial-reading value T2.
- T2 = TA/C
- T : Value that you must apply on the fastener
- A : Length of the torque wrench
- C : Measured length between the handle application point and
the bolt axis
- T2 : Torque-wrench dial-reading.
Calibrate the torque wrench and the adaptor assembly on a torque

meter.
Adjust the T2 value until you get the T value on the torque meter.
Tighten the fastener to the corrected value.
