CHAPTER 7: ELECTRICAL

Introduction
The Challenger 604 primarily uses 115-volt AC power and also 28-volt DC electrical
power.
Engine-driven integrated drive generators (IDGs) supply the primary source of AC
electrical power. A generator mounted on the Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) provides an
alternate source of AC electrical power. In flight, if a total loss of AC power occurs,
the air-driven generator (ADG) is deployed from the right side of the forward fuselage
to provide an emergency source of AC electrical power. External AC electrical power
is supplied through an electrical power receptacle located on the right side of the
forward fuselage.
Various aircraft systems and components require DC electrical power for operation.
DC electrical power needs are primarily supplied by four Transformer Rectifier Units
(TRU) mounted in the nose compartment. Two nickel-cadmium (NiCad) batteries,
located in the aft equipment bay, store and provide a source of DC electrical power for
normal and emergency operations.
The aircraft is capable of accepting 28-volt DC external electrical power through a DC
power receptacle installed on the rear fuselage below the right engine.
Five circuit breaker panels provide power distribution. Four circuit breaker panels are
located in the flight compartment and the fifth panel is in the aft equipment bay.
Control and operation are accomplished through the ELECTRICAL POWER Panel
located on the left side of the overhead panel. AC and DC electrical system
information is provided on the EICAS.

Alternating Current (AC) System

Description
Three AC generators provide AC power for the aircraft electrical systems. Two
engine-driven generators power all AC buses during normal operations. An APU
generator provides a source of AC electrical power when the aircraft is on the ground
with the engines off, and during flight if both engine-driven generators become
inoperative.

Components and Operation

Integrated Drive Generators (IDGs)

Two engine-driven IDGs supply 115-volt AC, 400-Hz, three-phase electrical power to
the AC buses. The IDG consists of two subcomponents, a constant speed drive and an
electrical generator.
The generators are identified on the EICAS AC Electrical Synoptic page by the
symbols GEN 1 and GEN 2 (see Figure 7-4). The nominal rating of each generator is
30 kilovolt-amperes (kVA) to an altitude of 35,000 feet MSL, then 25 kVA to 41,000
feet MSL. In the event of a single generator failure, the remaining generator is capable
of supplying sufficient power for operation of the main systems.
The generators are controlled by two-position GEN 1 or GEN 2 switches located on
the ELECTRICAL POWER Panel. Selecting GEN 1 or GEN 2 switch to ON connects
the respective generator to the main AC buses provided they are operating normally.
Selecting the switches to OFF/RESET will disconnect the respective generator from
the main AC buses. The OFF/RESET position can also be used to reset the generator
control circuit when a fault occurs.

Generator Control Unit


Each IDG is controlled and monitored by its respective generator control unit (GCU).
The GCUs provide protection and bus priority logic during normal and non-normal
operations. The engine generator is tripped off and removed from the AC buses if any
of the following conditions occur:
• over- and undervoltage
• over- and underfrequency
• generator and bus overcurrent

APU Generator

The APU generator supplies 115-volt AC, 400-Hz, three-phase electrical power to the
AC buses during ground operations with the engines off. The APU generator may also
be used in flight as a backup power source to the AC buses following a failure of both
engine generators. The APU generator is mounted on the APU generator adapter and
is driven at a constant speed, maintaining its frequency output at 400 Hz.
The APU generator is identified on the AC Electrical Synoptic page by the symbol
GEN above the APU icon (see Figure 7-5). The nominal rating of the APU generator
is 30 kVA from sea level up to the APU’s maximum operating altitude of 20,000 feet
MSL.
The two-position APU GEN switch located on the ELECTRICAL POWER Panel
controls the APU generator. Selecting the APU GEN switch to ON connects the APU
generator to the main AC buses, providing it is operating normally. Selecting the
switch to OFF/RESET disconnects the APU generator from the main AC buses. The
OFF/RESET position can also be used to reset the generator control circuit when a
fault occurs.

NOTE
Use of the APU generator in flight is not permitted unless both
main generators have failed or are off-line.

Generator Control Unit


The APU generator is controlled and monitored by the APU generator control unit
(GCU). The APU GCU in conjunction with the engine GCUs provide protection and
bus priority logic during normal and non-normal operations. The APU GENERATOR
is tripped off and removed from the AC buses if any of the following conditions occur:
• over- and undervoltage
• over- and underfrequency
• generator and bus overcurrent

External AC Electrical Power

Description
The aircraft is capable of being powered by an external AC power source when both
engines and APU are off. External AC electrical is connected at a receptacle located
on the forward right side of the fuselage.

P604_07_055

External AC Receptacle
Figure 7-6

Operation
External AC ground power is controlled by the EXT POWER switch/light located on
the ELECTRICAL POWER Panel. When connected, the external AC ground power is
checked by an external power monitor for proper voltage, frequency, and phase. When
the external power is within limits, the green AVAIL annunciator on the EXT POWER
switch/light illuminates (see Figure 7-7).
When the EXT POWER switch/light is pressed with the AVAIL annunciator
illuminated, external AC electrical power is connected to the aircraft main AC buses
via the auxiliary power/external power contactor (AP/EPC).
External AC ground power is identified on the AC Electrical Synoptic page by the
symbol EXT AC. This symbol appears only if external AC power is connected to the
aircraft (see Figure 7-7).

Components and Operation

AC BUS 1 and AC BUS 2

AC BUS 1 and AC BUS 2 are the main AC buses of the aircraft, and receive power
from any of the three generators or from external AC power. AC BUS 1 normally
supplies power to the AC ESS BUS and AC UTIL BUS 1. AC BUS 2 normally
powers AC UTIL BUS 2.

Bus Priority
AC BUS 1 and AC BUS 2 are protected by a bus priority logic to ensure that the buses
remain powered at all times. The generator control units (GCUs) determine the bus
priority logic for AC BUS 1 and AC BUS 2 via the generator line contactors (GLCs)
and generator transfer contactors (GTCs). The bus priority logic for AC BUS 1 and
AC BUS 2 is as follows:
• on-side engine-driven generator (example: AC BUS 1 powered by GEN 1)
• APU generator
• cross-side engine-driven generator (example: AC BUS 1 powered by GEN 2)
• external AC Power
According to the above priority logic, the GLCs and GTCs will automatically tie the
main AC buses to any of the available AC power sources, to ensure the main AC buses
remain powered at all times.

AC BUS 1(2) Automatic Transfer (AUTOXFER) Switch/Lights


The flight crew may manually inhibit the automatic bus transfer priority logic by
pressing the appropriate AUTOXFER switch/light located on the ELECTRICAL
POWER Panel. This prevents the corresponding AC BUS from being powered by any
source except its on-side engine-driven generator. This may be used to isolate a main
AC bus in the event of an electrical emergency (example: electrical smoke or fire).
Selection of the AUTOXFER switch/light is indicated by illumination of the
corresponding white OFF annunciator on the switch/light and the white AUTO XFER
OFF icon on the AC Electrical Synoptic page (see Figure 7-9).
Should a bus fault or generator overcurrent condition occur on a main AC bus, the
automatic bus transfer priority logic will be inhibited, isolating the fault from the
remaining AC electrical system. This condition is indicated by the AC 1(2)
AUTOXFER caution EICAS message, illumination of the corresponding amber FAIL
annunciator on the AUTOXFER switch/light, and the amber AUTO XFER FAIL icon
on the AC Synoptic page (see Figure 7-9).

AC ESS (Essential) Bus

The AC ESS BUS supplies power to the equipment essential for flight. It is normally
powered by AC BUS 1, but may also be powered by AC BUS 2 or the ADG BUS. The
AC ESS BUS supplies power to ESS TRU 1, which provides DC power to the DC
ESS BUS and the BATT BUS.
Refer to the ADG section in this chapter for information on the ADG BUS.

AC ESS Bus Transfer


If a loss of power on AC BUS 1 is sensed, the AC ESS BUS is automatically
transferred to AC BUS 2. When an automatic transfer to AC BUS 2 occurs, the AC
ESS XFER switch/light located on the ELECTRICAL POWER Panel illuminates and
the AC ESS ALTN status EICAS message appears (see Figure 7-10).
If the automatic transfer fails to occur, the AC ESS BUS can be manually transferred
to AC BUS 2 by pressing the AC ESS XFER switch/light.

AC UTILITY BUS 1 and 2 receive power from AC BUS 1 and 2 respectively. The AC
utility buses supply AC power to nonessential cabin equipment.

Utility Bus Shedding


During single-generator operation in flight, AC UTILITY BUS 1 and 2 are
automatically load shed to reduce the electrical load on the remaining generator.
During ground operations, AC UTILITY BUS 1 and 2 are load shed when a single
generator (or external AC power only) is supplying AC power and the flaps are not
retracted.
Load shedding of AC UTILITY BUS 1 and 2 is indicated by the appearance of AC

ELECTRICAL PILOT TRAINING GUIDE

Components and Operation

Air-Driven Generator

The ADG consists of an AC generator mounted on a pivoted support leg and a


variable-pitch two-bladed propeller that turns in the airstream. There are two versions
of the ADG.

Airplanes 5301 to 5407


On airplanes 5301 to 5407, constant speed of the generator is achieved by
hydraulically controlling the propeller pitch angle. This ADG is commonly referred to
as the “wet ADG”. Wet ADG operation is airspeed-limited (refer to the Airplane
Flight Manual Limitations).

NOTE
On landing with the wet ADG deployed, use gentle deceleration
to prevent the ADG from swinging forward and contacting the
fuselage.

Airplane 5408 and Subsequent


On airplanes 5408 and subsequent, the constant speed of the ADG is achieved by
using a counterweight system to control the propeller pitch angle. This ADG is
commonly referred to as the “dry ADG”.

ADG Generator Control Unit


The ADG generator is controlled and monitored by the ADG generator control unit
(GCU). The ADG GCU provides the following functions:
• monitors and controls ADG voltage output
• protects against overvoltage, overfrequency and underfrequency to the ADG BUS
• provides a signal to the ADG Auto Deploy Control Unit to energize the HYD
PUMP 3B Transfer Contactor, Emergency AC Transfer Contactor, and Emergency
DC Transfer Contactor when the ADG voltage and frequency are within limits

May 03
PILOT TRAINING GUIDE ELECTRICAL

ADG AUTO DEPLOY CONTROL Unit

Located on the lower center pedestal, the ADG AUTO DEPLOY CONTROL Unit
controls the automatic deployment of the ADG.
Automatic deployment of the ADG occurs when:
• both AC BUS 1 and AC BUS 2 become unpowered
• the aircraft is in flight
Another ADG deployment prerequisite is that one of the three main generators must
be on line prior to both AC main buses going off (this prevents the ADG from
deploying during ground maintenance tests with external power being connected and
disconnected with the aircraft on jacks.
The red EMER PWR ONLY warning EICAS message appears to indicate loss of all
normal electrical power and ADG deployment.
When the ADG unit is fully extended, the two-blade propeller is unlocked and rotates
in the airstream. Once the ADG voltage and frequency are within normal limits, the
AUTO DEPLOY CONTROL Unit energizes the appropriate transfer contactors, and
allows the ADG to provide power to the AC ESS BUS and to hydraulic pump 3B via
the ADG BUS.

Airplanes 5301 to 5407


On airplanes 5301 to 5407, the ADG AUTO DEPLOY CONTROL Unit deploys the
ADG by sending an electrical signal to fire the squib cartridge in the ADG uplock
mechanism.

Airplane 5408 and Subsequent


On airplanes 5408 and subsequent, the ADG AUTO DEPLOY CONTROL Unit sends
a signal to release the solenoid of the ADG uplock mechanism.

PWR TXFR OVERRIDE


With the ADG deployed, it may be possible to restore normal AC electrical power by
resetting an engine-driven generator or by using the APU generator. If AC electrical
power is restored, the PWR TXFR OVERRIDE switch (see Figure 7-13) should be
selected to reset the three transfer contactors and regain normal AC distribution. This
returns the AC ESS BUS to AC BUS 1 and the 3B hydraulic pump to normal
operation.

NOTE
The ADG Manual Deploy Handle must be stowed to allow the
transfer contactors to reset.

ADG LAMP / UNIT Switch


The ADG Auto Deploy Control Unit may be tested using the two-position ADG
LAMP / UNIT switch located on the ADG AUTO DEPLOY CONTROL Panel.
Selecting the switch to the UNIT position tests the continuity of the uplock circuit, the
three transfer contactors, and the ADG AUTO DEPLOY CONTROL Unit internal
logic circuitry. Both engine generators must be operating and AC BUS 1 and AC BUS
2 must be powered to ensure a proper test.
Selecting the switch to the LAMP position checks the serviceability of the green TEST
lamp only.

ADG Manual Deploy Handle

In the event of an auto-deploy failure, the ADG can be manually deployed using the
ADG Manual Deploy Handle located on the lower center pedestal. Pulling the handle
manually releases the uplock that allows the ADG to deploy. In addition, the
Emergency AC Transfer Contactor and Emergency DC Transfer Contactor are
energized immediately.
In the event the ADG fails, operating the ADG Manual Deploy Handle enables the DC
ESS BUS to be supplied by the BATT BUS through the Emergency DC Transfer
Contactor.

NOTE
If the ADG is not operating properly and the airplane is on battery
power only, then all electrical power may be lost after 30
minutes.

Hydraulic pump 3B will be inoperative when on battery power.

Manual deployment of the ADG handle is also required for landing when the ADG is
the only source of AC electrical power. This ensures that the DC ESS BUS remains
powered by the BATT BUS throughout the landing rollout, when the ADG is no
longer capable of generating AC power.

DC Electrical Power System

Description
Four transformer-rectifier units (TRUs), two NiCad batteries and an external DC
power receptacle supply direct current (DC) power to the DC buses. The TRUs carry
the majority of the DC electrical loads and the batteries provide emergency power in-
flight and allow the APU to be started on the ground.
DC power is distributed to the DC buses directly from the TRUs or batteries, and from
various contactors which provide alternate sources of power.
Electrical power is supplied to the buses through the circuit breaker panels.

Components and Operation

Transformer-Rectifier Units (TRUs)

The normal sources of 28-volt DC electrical power for the DC system are the four
TRUs. Each TRU converts 115-volt AC to 28-volt DC and supplies it to its respective
DC buses. Each TRU is rated at 100 amps.
The four TRUs are identified as:
• TRU 1
• TRU 2
• ESS (Essential) TRU 1
• ESS (Essential) TRU 2
The TRUs supply the following buses:
• TRU 1 normally supplies DC BUS 1 and DC UTIL BUS 1
• TRU 2 normally supplies DC BUS 2 and DC UTIL BUS 2
• ESS TRU 1 normally supplies DC ESS BUS and DC BATT BUS
• ESS TRU 2 normally supplies DC ESS BUS and DC BATT BUS

TRU Power Distribution System

The TRU Power Distribution System supplies the following buses:

DC BUS 1 and DC BUS 2


DC BUS 1 is supplied by TRU 1 and DC BUS 2 is supplied by TRU 2. If either TRU
fails, both buses can be supplied by either TRU by selecting the MAIN BUS TIE
switch/light on the ELECTRICAL POWER Panel (see Figure 7-17).

DC ESS BUS
The DC ESS BUS powers equipment essential for safe flight, and therefore, may be
supplied by numerous DC sources to ensure redundancy of its power supply.
Normally, ESS TRU 1 and ESS TRU 2 power the DC ESS BUS. In the event of a
single ESS TRU failure, either ESS TRU is capable of sustaining the DC ESS BUS
load. Should both ESS TRUs fail with the aircraft in flight, the APU BATT DIR BUS
through the DC ESS solid-state contactor will power the DC ESS BUS.
During ADG operation, the AC ESS BUS powers ESS TRU 1 which in turn powers
the DC ESS BUS. The DC ESS BUS can also be powered by the APU and Main
batteries through the Emergency DC Transfer Contactor. Refer to the ADG section of
this chapter for additional information.

BATT BUS
The BATT BUS powers equipment essential for safe flight, and may be supplied by
several DC sources to ensure redundancy. Normally, ESS TRU 1 and ESS TRU 2
power the BATT BUS when the main AC buses are powered. If the ESS TRUs are not
operating (no AC power or ESS TRU failures), the BATT BUS will be powered by the
APU BATT DIR BUS and MAIN BATT DIR BUS provided the BATT MASTER
Switch is selected ON.
The BATT MASTER Switch located on the ELECTRICAL POWER Panel controls
the APU BATT and MAIN BATT contactors to supply the BATT BUS, as described
above.
The BATT BUS also supplies the DC EMER BUS.

For Training Purposes Only 7-23


May 03
ELECTRICAL PILOT TRAINING GUIDE

DC UTIL BUS 1 and DC UTIL BUS 2


The DC UTIL buses supply power to nonessential cabin equipment. TRU 1 and
TRU 2 power DC UTILITY BUS 1 and 2 respectively.
Whenever the MAIN BUS TIE switch/light is selected following a TRU 1 or 2 failure,
the DC UTIL buses are load shed to reduce the DC electrical load.

Battery Power Distribution System

The Battery Power Distribution System represents a small portion of the aircraft’s total
DC load. The batteries primarily provide the energy needed to start the APU, which
can then be used to supply AC power to the aircraft. The batteries also supply
emergency DC power in-flight should all AC power be lost and the ADG become
inoperative.
Two rechargeable nickel-cadmium (NiCad) batteries are installed in the aft equipment
bay. The main battery is a 24-volt, 17-amp/hour battery. The APU battery is a 24-volt,
43-amp/hour battery.
The batteries supply DC electrical power to the following buses:
• MAIN BATT DIR BUS
• APU BATT DIR BUS
• DC EMER BUS
• BATT BUS

Battery Charging
The main battery charger and APU battery charger are in a charging configuration at
all times when the applicable main AC buses are powered:
• AC BUS 1 for Main Battery Charger
• AC BUS 2 for APU Battery Charger
The battery chargers operate automatically in various modes based on battery
temperatures. Should a battery or battery charger fault be detected, the respective
battery charger will shut down. A MAIN (APU) BATT CHGR FAIL status EICAS
message will appear and the CHGR OFF icon will be displayed on the DC Electrical
Synoptic page to indicate a failure.

7-24 For Training Purposes Only


Jan 04
PILOT TRAINING GUIDE ELECTRICAL

MAIN and APU BATT DIR BUSES


These DC buses are continuously powered from the associated battery, regardless of
the BATT MASTER switch position. The main battery is connected to the MAIN
BATT DIR BUS and the APU battery is connected to the APU BATT DIR BUS. These
buses provide power to the aircraft systems which primarily relate to ground service
operation (refueling, service lights, etc.). The APU BATT DIR BUS also supplies the
DC EMER BUS.

DC Emergency Bus
The DC EMER BUS provides power to the engine and APU fire extinguishers and the
fuel and hydraulic shutoff valves. The bus is connected to the APU BATT DIR BUS
and the BATT BUS and is continuously powered.

BATT BUS
Refer to the TRU distribution section of this chapter.

External DC Electrical Power


External DC ground power may be used to start the APU if the APU battery charge is
low. The External DC receptacle is located at the rear of the aircraft near the right
engine pylon (see Figure 7-18).

P604_07_056

External DC Receptacle

When connected, external DC ground power automatically supplies the APU BATT
DIR BUS through the External DC contactor, and the BATT BUS when the BATT
MASTER switch is selected ON. The DC EXTERNAL POWER white IN USE light
on the ELECTRICAL POWER panel illuminates whenever DC external power is
connected.
External DC ground power is identified on the DC Electrical Synoptic page by the

Circuit Breakers

Description

Electrical power distribution is accomplished through five circuit breaker panels. Four
circuit breaker panels are installed in the flight deck and the fifth panel is in the aft
equipment bay. They are identified as follows (see Figure 7-20):
• Circuit Breaker Panel 1 (CBP-1)
• Circuit Breaker Panel 2 (CBP-2)
• Circuit Breaker Panel 3 (CBP-3)
• Circuit Breaker Panel 4 (CBP-4)
• Circuit Breaker Panel 5 (CBP-5)
Electrical equipment protection is provided by conventional thermal circuit breakers.
When a circuit breaker is tripped, a white collar is exposed. Depending on airplane
completion specification, circuit breakers may also be located in other parts of the
airplane. Should a circuit breaker trip while the airplane is in flight, the circuit breaker
should be allowed to cool for as long as possible before resetting.

NOTE
Do not attempt more than one reset of a circuit breaker.
