ASD-STAN/D 2/S 1 - Electrical Network

This document defines the method to establish an electrical load analysis which is used to compare the supply capacity of an electrical power generation system with the power demand of the connected electrical utilisation equipment.
It shall prove that the power sources are capable of supplying these loads under all electrical power system states and aircraft operating conditions and that specified growth capacity for future requirements is ensured.

This document specifies:
—   the tests for finished wiring, including connectors and, if necessary, terminals, terminal ends, junction boxes, circuit breakers, etc.;
—   the requirements for verification of aircraft electrical wiring;
—   continuity of circuits;
—   dielectric strength;
—   insulation resistance;
—   partial discharge for operating voltages above 230/400 V a.c. (see also TR 4907 ).
These tests do not concern equipment installed in the aircraft (see operation of systems) and do not apply to the wiring used in instrumentation.
