In flight each generator normally powers its own generator bus.
APU SUPPLY
If one generator is inoperative, the APU generator may be used to power the
inoperative generator’s bus. The APU Generator can supply:
Each Generator system consists of a generator bus and a transfer bus. On Ground:
If there is a failure of a generator bus, the associated transfer bus can be − AC GEN BUS 1
supplied automatically from the powered generator bus. − AC GEN BUS 2
Each transfer bus has an associated transfer relay which automatically selects − TRANSFER BUS 1
the opposite generator bus as a power supply if its normal generator bus fails − TRANSFER BUS 2
and the transfer switch is in AUTO position.

General
AC External Power, when provided to the External Power Receptacle, can
power the entire electrical power systems or only the Ground Service Busses.
The components of the AC External Power System are:
External Power Panel,
Bus Protection Panel (BPP),
External Power Contactors,
External Power Relay,
Ground Service Relay, and
manual control devices.
Controls
Providing power to the External Power Receptacle illuminates the:
− EXTERNAL POWER CONN and
− NOT IN USE lights on P19 panel and
− GRD POWER AVAILABLE light on P5 panel.
FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY!
The EXTERNAL POWER CONN and GRD POWER AVAILABLE lights remain
on at all times that External Power is connected.
The NOT IN USE light extinguishes when the GND PWR or GROUND
SERVICE switch is set to ON or when the fueling station access door is
opened.
When the GND PWR switch on P 5 Panel is set to ON and the BPP sense no
faults, external power contactors close and the entire airplane is supplied.

Operation
The BPP protects against overvoltage (130 +/− 3 volts), undervoltage
(100 +/−3 volts), and negative sequence voltage.
The BPP trips the external power contactors when a fault is detected.
The BPP also has anti−cycling protection, which prevents the external power
system from cycling when a fault exists and a manual control device is held to
ON.

AC GENERATOR - VSCF
General
The VSCF (Variable Speed Constant Frequency) changes mechanical energy
from a variable speed shaft on the accessory gearbox to constant frequency
electrical power.
The VSCF is on the left side of the engine at the 8 o’clock position.
A quick attach−detach (QAD) adapter kit holds the VSCF to the front of the
accessory gearbox.
The VSCF is interchangeable with the constant speed drive and generator
assembly.
The VSCF weighs approximately 140 pounds (63.5 kg).
A Built In Test (BIT) feature is included in the VSCF unit.
Fault data are displayed by two red LED’s located adjacent to a test
toggle-switch or two test push-buttons.
The VSCF is interchangeable with the constant speed drive and generator
assembly.

It converts this to three phase electrical power at 115 volts and a constant The GCCU has two important functions:
frequency of 400 Hz. (a) The GCCU controls the generator and the inverter.
Components The voltage regulator in the GCCU sends a signal to the field of the
generator to control the generator output voltage.
These are the components of the VSCF:
The GCCU also controls the output transistors in the inverter.
The generator converts shaft energy at variable speeds to three phase
electrical power at 115 volts. It makes them come on and go off at the correct times to make the output
voltage waveform.
The output frequency of the generator depends on the engine speed; it varies
from 1370 to 2545 Hz. (b) The GCCU also monitors the operation of the VSCF.
The dc filter rectifies the generator output to 270 volts dc. The GCCU monitors the dc link voltage from the dc filter.
The dc filter also uses large capacitors to remove the ripple from the dc link It uses this signal to control the generator output voltage.

Inside the inverter is the neutral forming transformer. The GCCU looks for failures and stores failure data for use

This information helps the GCCU find failures that are external to the VSCF.

Operation
The VSCF uses MIL−L−7808 or MIL−L−23699 oil for cooling and lubrication.
The oil also gives viscous damping for the generator bearings to reduce
vibration.
The oil pump is inside the generator case.
The generator shaft turns the oil pump through a set of gears.
This keeps the speed of the oil pump below 12,000 rpm.
The oil pump keeps approximately 30 psig (207 kPa) of pressure in the oil
system.
FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY!
If the oil system becomes blocked, the bypass valve opens at approximately
250 psig (1,724 kPa).
This prevents damage to the oil pump.

Power for the VSCF-BITE is provided by the DRIVE LIGHT (low oil pressure
light) circuit of the VSCF.
With light test switch in position bright and both bulbs of the DRIV LIGHT (low

The VSCF bite lights (LEDs) VSCF-FAIL and OPEN-PHASE only illuminate if
the test switch is in position INDICATE or TEST.
Because of both bulbs of the DRIVE LIGHT (low oil pressure light) are ok,
enough current is available to illuminate both LEDs.

AC BUS INDICATING LIGHTS
The neon lights illuminate when phases A and C of their AC Busses are
powered.
Each light is connected directly to a circuit breaker on its respective bus and all
lights are connected to a common ground.
The Lights are covered by a hinged panel which can be opened when a quick
opening device is released.
NOTE: The indicators for Voltage, Frequency and Amperes are normally
switched to the phase B.

Operation
All lights have 28 Volt DC Battery Bus power available (provided the battery
switch is in ON).
A ground will be connected within a GCU by energizing the trip coil of the
applicable fault light relay.
If the trip coil of the relay has been energized, it will be latched in the Trip
position by a permanent magnetic latch, and can only be released by
energizing the reset coil.
The only possibility for energizing the reset coils and deleting the FF, HV and
LV lights is by pushing the ERASE button.
The only possibility for energizing the reset coil and deleting the MT lights is by
switching the respective GEN Switch to the ON position.
The ERASE button has no effect on the MT lights.
Reasons for indication:
High Voltage (HV): Voltage > 130 V
Low Voltage (LV): Voltage < 100 V
Feeder Fault (FF): Overcurrent or Differential Protection (VSCF Fault)
Manual Trip (MT): Generator Breaker Switch to OFF or CSD Disconnect
Switch to Disconnect position.
