SAAB 340B ‘Aircraft Operations Manual 1. GENERAL. ‘The electrical power system is divided into four sepa- rate parts, namely: ~ A 28 V DC system, powered either from two engine driven generators, from two batteries or from an exter- nal power source, fig. 1-8. This systomis spit in alot and a right system, each with one generator and one battery, — An emergency power system, powered from the ordi- nary DC system or from an emergency power battery, fig.1-8. — A frequency controlled 115/26 V AC 400 Hz system, powered from the DC system through a main or a standby (26V AC only) inverter, fi. 1-8. ~ A*wild” frequency AC system, powered from two en- gine-driven generators and used for ice protection only, fig. 9. Distribution of DC power is effected through a left and. right power distribution unitto the respective GEN BUS, MAIN BUS, BAT BUS, AVIONIC BUS, ESS BUS, MAIN. START BUS and AVIONIC START BUS. In addition, the ESS AVIONIC BUS, EMERGENCY BUS and EMER AVION BUS are connected to the left power system while a UTILITY BUS is connected to the right power system. There is also a HOT BAT BUS connected to each battery. ‘The left and right power systems are tied together by a bus tie relay thereby enablinga single battery or genera- tor to supply both power systems. ‘The emergency power system consists of the previous- ly mentioned EMERGENCY BUS and EMER AVION BUS. These buses are, in addition to the normal power ‘supply, supplied from an emergency battery fora limited time as a last power resource, ‘The AC system consists of a Land R INV BUS 115V AC plus a Land R INV BUS 26 V AC. The AC buses are nor- mally powered through the main inverter from the L MAIN BUS. The L and R INV BUS 26V AC may also be powered through the standby inverter from the R MAIN BUS. ELECTRICAL Operation "Wild" fequency AC, used for ice protection only, is sup- plied from two generators, driven by the respective pro- peller gearbox, to the L and R GEN BUS 118V AC. Ei- ther AC generator can supply both buses through the use of a load transfer relay. Each engine air intake anti icing is supplied from respective AC generator. Control and monitoring of the electrical system is per- formed from the overhead panel. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS. 2.1. DC Starter Generator. Normal power supply is from the two 400 ampere, com- bined starter/generators located one on each engine accessory gearbox. They deliver 28 V DC to the re- spective: GEN BUS and BAT BUS via the generator relay. — MAIN! BUS via the generator and main bus relays. At engine star, a speed switch in the starterigenerator ssenses the RPM for the GCU which controis the disen- gagement ofthe start cycle. ‘The generator drive shaft has a shear point which will separate the generator drive shaft from the accessory drive gear in case of high mechanical overloading. ‘Onthe ground the starter/generatoris cooled by an inte- gral fan and when airborne ram air is used for cooling. ‘Athermoswitch will cause a GEN OV TEMP light in the overhead panel to come on if a generator is overheated (150°C) ‘The operation of the starter/generator is controlled by the respective generator control unit (@CU).. 2.2. DC Generator Control Unit (GCU). ‘Two separate but identical GCU's are provided for the two generators. A GCU furnishes its associated genera~ tor with field excitation and voltage regulation for controt and protection of the DC system against faults in the generation system. The GCU also controls the engine start cycle and disengages the startigenerator at 55% Ng. 5.1 PAGE 1 Nov 30/96X SS SAAB 340B 4 “Aircraft Operations Manual Magenerator parameter is not correct, the GCU de-en- ergizes the generator by opening the field relay, and dis- connects the generator from the GEN BUS by opening the generator relay. Incase of fire handleis pulled, the corresponding gener- ator is de-energized by its GCU and disconnected from the GEN BUS. ‘After any fault causing a GCU to isolate the affected generator, the field relay can be reset by cycling the re- spective GEN switch in RESET position, Applicable without mod 2593 installed. ‘The GCU can not detect DC generator voltage low (generator not charging) and subsequently not disconnect a non-charging generator. Also see Abnormal Procedures DC voltage low. SNOT rere ee ese a Applicable with mod 2533 installed. ‘The GCU will detect DC generator voltage low situation and subsequently disconnact a non-charging generator. 2. 8, External power ‘An external power receptacle on the right hand att fuse- lage wing fairing, allows the aircraft to be supplied on ‘ground with 28 V DC power from a ground power unit. A status light on the overhead panel indicates when ex- ternal power is available. 2. 4, Batteries. ‘There are two 24 V/43 ampere-hours nickel-cadmium, batteries which are installed in the left and right wing fairings. With battery power only, each battery supplies power to its respective HOT BAT BUS and BAT BUS via GEN BUS. A number of other buses are then powered from the BAT BUS, see fig. 2. When using the batteries for engine start, they will be connected in series with the Series/Parallel relay and thereby supplying 48 V DC to the starter/generator. ‘Two thermal switches are installed on each battery to provide overheat protection. The first thermal switch closes at 57°C so that a NO BAT START light on the ELECTRICAL Operation ‘overhead panel comes on, indicating that the batteries should not be used for engine starting. A second ther- mal witchcloses at atemperature of 71°C, thereby dis- Connecting the battery from its GEN BUS and the START BUS, indicated by a BAT HOT light on the over- head panel. Inanemergency situation the 71°C thermal ‘switch canbe overridden by setting the battery switch to ‘OVRD position to assure battery supply to the GEN BUS. One thermal sensor is located on each battery to mea- sure the battery temperature, which is shown on the temperature indicator on the overhead panel. The indi- cator is shared with the fuel temperature indication by means of a selector switch, To improve ventilation on ground, a fan is installed in each battery compartment. The fan is controlled by the nose landing gear locked down switch when airborne ram air is used for ventilation 2. 6. Power Distribution Unit (PDU). ‘Alef and a right power distribution unit contots all pri- mary switching of the different power sources which might be connected tothe aircraft buses. The folowing relays are installed inthe distribution units: UR Generator Relay (GR). When the generator relay is closed, the starter/genera~ tor powers the GEN BUS. The following conditions must bbe met for the generator relay to close: = External power relay open. ~ Engine start completed ~ Generaior field current reset. External Power Overvoltage Relay (right PDU). ‘An overvoltage protection relay will open the external ower relay or not allow it to close if external power vot- age shoud exceed 31 volt External Power Relay (EPR) (right PDU). ‘When the external power relay is closed, the external power unt powers the DC buses via the START BUS. ‘The L GEN BUS is powered via the de-energized se- riesiparallel relay and the R GEN BUS via the closed bus te relay. 5.1 PAGE 2 Dec 21/95SAAB 340B Aircraft Operations Manual ‘The following condition must be met for the external power relay to close: — EXT PWR switch on overhead panel in ON position, — External power available, — External power overvoltage relay not energized. The EXT PWR switch is provided with an electromag- netic hold function which will hold the switch lever in ON position when external power is switched ON. The EXT. PWR switch will also automatically be de-energized and retarded to OFF position ifthe external power volt- age drops below approximately 10 V. The EXT PWR. relay de-energizes and the batteries will be connected if the BAT-switches are ON. Applicable to a/c without Mod. 2617: During the first part of the engine start sequence while the start switch is held in start position, the EXT PWR. switch will retard to OFF if the external power voltage should drop bolow approximately 7V. The start se- quence will continue on batteries. During the remaining part of the start sequence when the start switch is re leased, the drop out voltage is approximately 10 V. If now dropping below that value the start sequence will be interrupted. Applicable to a/c with Mod. 2617: If EXT PWA should drop of line while the Start Switch is being held in the START position or anytime during a start-up, there will be loss of electrical power. The only busses that will be powered are LH and RH Hot Battery Busses and Emergency Battery Bus until the Start ‘Switch is released (during motoring or motoring start) or the Condition Lever is moved to Fue! Off (during a start~ up), UR Battery Relay. When the battery relays are closed, the left battery is connected to the START BUS and the right battery is, connected to the FR GEN BUS. ‘The following conditions must be met for a battery relay to close: — UR BAT switch on overhead panel in ON position. — EXT PWR switch off — Battery temperature below 71°C. ELECTRICAL ‘Operation or ~Ballery switch in OVRD positions (for emergency use only) The batteries will be charged {rom respective GEN BUS when at east one generator is on line. UR Start Relay. When the start relay is closed, the starter/generator re- ceives power from the START BUS. During abaitery start, the start relay is controlled by the series/parallel relay connecting the two batteries in se- ries The start relay closes when the start switch is in ON position. The relay has a hold function and will remain closed when the start switch is released. The relay will ‘open at 55% Ng controlled by the GCU. Serles/Farallel Relay. When the series/parallel relay is in de-energized posi- tion, the START BUS is connected to the L GEN BUS. ‘When energized, the L GEN BUS is separated from the START BUS, This relay is slaved to the battery bus relay and is ener- gized during a battery engine start which will connect the batteries in series giving 48 V for star. L HOT BAT BUS Relay. When the HOT BAT BUS relay is de-energized, it con- nects the left battery to the L HOT BAT BUS. This relay is energized during engine battery start, and connects the L HOT BAT BUS to the R GEN BUS (right battery). Bus Tie Relay (left PDU). When the bus tie relay is closed, it connects the two generator buses. This is done for three reasons: ~ To supply both L and R GEN BUS when external pow- eris on ~To enable power supply to both L and R GEN BUS from only one generator., 5.1 PAGE = 3 Feb 15/04Aircraft Operations Manual ~ To connect the two main batteries. ‘The bus tie relay function is controlled by @ BUS TIE ‘switch and monitored by a BUS TIE CONN light, both. located on the overhead panel. The bus te relay is closed when the BUS TIE switch isin CONN position or in AUTO position with one or both generators failed or with only batteries ON. Itis open if the BUS TIE swith isin SPLIT position orn AUTO posi- tion with both generators on tine. UR MAIN START BUS relay. When a MAIN START BUS relay is closed, it connects the MAIN START BUS to its BAT BUS. ‘To close a MAIN START BUS relay, the respective gen- erator relay or the external power relay must be closed. UR MAIN BUS relay. When a MAIN BUS relay is closed, it connects the MAIN, BUS to the GEN BUS. To close a MAIN BUS relay the following conditions must be met = The corresponding BAT BUS powered ~The corresponding MAIN START BUS relay closed, = No engine starting in progress. Overcurrent relay. ‘To protect the main distribution system in case of a short circuit, there is a bus tie overcurrent relay installed. Should the current over the relay exceed 800 ampere. the overcurrent relay trips, causing the bus tie relay to open. Manual reset of the overcurrent relay can be done by the RESET BUS TIE pushbutton (K-1) on the forward, part of left pilot's circuit breaker panel. ‘Automatic override of the bus tle overcurrent protection, is performed during an engine star. 2. 6. DC Buses. Remote Controlled Circuit Breakers (RCCB) are used to switch high current and are controlled either by a ELECTRICAL ‘Operation switch orby an electric bus via a small current CB. The CCB wil open for an overcurrent. The respective GEN. BUS supplies power to its respective BAT BUS and to respective MAIN BUS via the MAIN BUS relay. The re- spective MAIN BUS supplies its AVIONIC BUS visa a RCCB, The RCCB wil close when respective AVIONIC switch is sot to ON provided the respective MAIN BUS is powered, ‘The R MAIN BUS also supplies the UTILITY BUS via a RCCB. Il the R MAIN BUS is powered the RCCB will close and supply power to the UTILITY BUS provided both generators are on line or extemal power is switched on. ‘The respective BAT BUS supplies the L/R MAIN START. BUS via its main start bus relay and L/R ESS BUS via its ESS BUS relay. The ESS BUS relays are open during engine start. The LR MAIN START BUS supplies its respective AVIONIG START BUS when the LIR AVION switch is ON. When the ESS AVION switch is ON the ESS AVIONIC BUS is supplied from the L ESS BUS and the EMER AVIONIC BUS from the EMERGENCY BUS. 2. 7. Emergency power supply. Emergency power is supplied by the emergency power supply unit which contains the emergency battery and a battery heater. The battery is a 24 V/5 ampere-hours lead-acid battery. The battery heater will be activated automatically in cold temperatures. The heater warms up the battery for best battery efficiency. When the L BAT BUS is powered from generator or ex- temal power, the emergency battery is charged from this bus. The emergency battery begins to supply power to the EMERGENCY BUS when the L BAT BUS voltage goes below 24 V. If the emergency battery voltage drops below 24 V, the EMER PWR light on the overhead panel comes on. This light also comes on if the EMERGENCY BUS is not powerec, provide the warning electronic unit (WEU) is poweree 5.1 PAGE 4 Feb 15/04SAAB 340B Aircraft Operations Manual 2. 8. DCIAC inverter system. Applicable with a main and a standby inverter installed: ‘There are two 400 Hz inverters, one main inverter and one standby inverter. With the MAIN INV 115V 26V switch in ON and the 26V inverter switch in MAIN INV, the main inverter supplies power to: — Land R INV BUS 115V AC = Land R INV BUS 26V AC If the DC supply from the L MAIN BUS to the main in- verter is interrupted, or the main inverter fails, the MAIN. INV light on the overhead panel comes on. In this case, the standby inverter can be selected by placing the 26V inverter switch to STBY INV. The standby inverter will then supply the L and R INV BUS 26V AG from the MAIN BUS. The Land R INV BUS 115V AC will however remain powerless. Applicable with two main inverters installed: ‘The alc is provided with two main inverters 115 VI26 V 400 Haz, By selecting INVERTER 1 or 2, anyone of the two invert- ers will supply power to: = Land R INV BUS 115 V AG; Land R INV BUS 26 V AC. If the DC supply to the selected operation inverter is in- torrupted or if the inverter fails, the INVERTER light on the overhead panel comes on. In this case select the other inverter. With Mod No 2544 installed (power supply changed for, ACARS CONS and the inverters). The power supply for the inverters are changed from Land R MAIN BUS to L and R BAT BUS. The selected inverter might tip during engine battery start due to battery voltage drop and must be reset after engine start if tripped. 2. 9, Wild frequency AC system. (Fig. 9). The wild frequency 115V AC system is for ice protection only. "Wild" Is because the frequency is variable be- tween 460 to 600 Hz due to variations in propeller rpm. There is one AC generator installed on each propeller ELECTRICAL ‘Operation {gearbox and itis cooled by ram air during fight and by an integral fan on the ground. The generator drive shaft has a shear point which will separate the generator dive shatt from the accessory drive gear in case of high mechanical overloading. Each generator is connected to the respective LIR AC. GEN BUS through an AC generator relay and controlled by a control unt. The control unit regulates the voltage {0 115V and also provides fault protectio Eithor of the two generator relays automatically ties the two generator busses together when one generator is, inoperative, or manually by means of the LIR AC GEN switches on the overhead panel. Ia generator fails or disconnects from the LR AC GEN BUS due to too low propeller rpm, i's AC GEN light on the overhead panel comes on. The generator automati- cally resets when the propeller rpm increases again and the AC GEN light goes out. 5.1 PAGE 5 Feb 15/04ELECTRICAL Operation 340B Aircraft Operations Manual rot font ed 7 soweuct [ rescreanes some NIWA, 7 RTT | Tne RT| " a : camel lectavie wets ees LI a a nas “Asie 14 LMWS NIV EL ay Yous: ‘koje = veins 4 racer miele SCENE oot aun sna ssa RVs Aonsouawa | | S08 8837 nie L, gow = Zk vows ——— wowme re ar bk F Fakes Sane aas SPR 5.1 FIG. 1.
