TIME LIMITS/MAINTENANCE CHECKS - MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

1. General
A. This procedure has these tasks:
(1) Airworthiness Limitation Precautions.
(2) Enhanced Zonal Inspection Program (EZAP) Precautions.

TASK 05-00-00-910-801
2. Airworthiness Limitation Precautions
A. General
(1) Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCLs)
(a) All occurrences of CDCCLs found in this chapter of the AMM are identified by this note after each applicable CDCCL design
feature:
1) NOTE: CDCCL - Refer to the task: Airworthiness Limitation Precautions, TASK 05-00-00-910-801, for important information
on Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCLs).
(b) Design features that are CDCCLs can be found in the Special Compliance Items (SCI) document. CDCCLs are a means of
identifying certain design configuration features intended to preclude a fuel tank ignition source for the operational life of the
airplane. CDCCLs are mandatory and cannot be changed or deleted without the approval of the FAA office that is responsible for
the airplane model Type Certificate, or applicable regulatory agency. A critical fuel tank ignition source prevention feature may
exist in the fuel system and its related installation or in systems that, if a failure condition were to develop, could interact with the
fuel system in such a way that an unsafe condition would develop without this limitation. Strict adherence to configuration,
methods, techniques, and practices as prescribed is required to ensure the CDCCL is complied with. Any use of parts, methods,
techniques or practices not contained in the applicable CDCCL must be approved by the FAA office that is responsible for the
airplane model Type Certificate, or applicable regulatory agency.
(2) Airworthiness Limitation Instructions (ALIs)
(a) All occurrences of fuel tank system ALIs found in this chapter of the AMM are identified by this step after the General section in
the applicable ALI inspection task:
1) ALI - Refer to the task: Airworthiness Limitation Precautions, TASK 05-00-00-910-801, for important information on
airworthiness limitation instructions (ALIs).
(b) Inspection tasks that are ALIs can be found in the Special Compliance Items (SCI) document. These ALIs identify inspection
tasks related to fuel tank ignition source prevention which must be done to maintain the design level of safety for the operational
life of the airplane. These ALIs are mandatory and cannot be changed or deleted without the approval of the FAA office that is
responsible for the airplane model Type Certificate, or applicable regulatory agency. Strict adherence to methods, techniques
and practices as prescribed is required to ensure the ALI is complied with. Any use of methods, techniques or practices not
contained in these ALIs must be approved by the FAA office that is responsible for the airplane model Type Certificate, or
applicable regulatory agency.

SUBTASK 05-00-00-910-001
OBEY THE MANUFACTURER'S PROCEDURES WHEN YOU DO
MAINTENANCE THAT HAS AN EFFECT ON A CDCCL. IF YOU DO NOT OBEY
THE PROCEDURES, IT CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF A SOURCE OF FUEL
WARNING TANK IGNITION. INJURIES TO PERSONNEL, AND DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT
CAN OCCUR IF THERE IS A FIRE OR EXPLOSION.

(1) Make sure you follow the procedures for items identified as CDCCLs.
D. Airworthiness Limitation Instructions (ALIs)
SUBTASK 05-00-00-910-002
OBEY THE MANUFACTURER`S PROCEDURES WHEN YOU DO ANY
MAINTENANCE THAT MAY AFFECT AN ALI. IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THE
PROCEDURES, IT CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF A FUEL TANK IGNITION
WARNING SOURCE.

(1) Make sure you follow the procedures for items identified as ALIs.

B. EWIS
TASK 05-00-00-910-802
3. Enhanced Zonal Inspection Program (EZAP) Precautions
A. General
1. Enhanced Zonal Analysis Procedure (EZAP) and associated Electrical Wiring Interconnection
System (EWIS)
a) Enhanced Zonal Analysis Procedure (EZAP) is an analytical procedure required by Part 25,
Appendix H, Section H25.5(a)(1) that identifies the physical and environmental conditions
contained in each zone of an airplane, analyzes the effects of these conditions on electrical
wiring and components, and assesses the possibilities for smoke and fire. The end result of
the analysis are inspection and restoration tasks in the form of EWIS ICA.
b) Electrical Wiring Interconnection System (EWIS): means any wire, power feeder, wiring
device, or combination of these, including termination devices, installed in any area of the
airplane for the purpose of transmitting electrical energy, including data and signals,
between two or more intended termination points. EWIS is defined in full by 14 CFR section
25.1701.
c) The Zonal Inspection Program includes a general visual and, if required, physical check of
the general condition and security of attachment of the accessible systems and structures
items contained in defined zones. This includes checks for degradation such as chafing of
tubing, loose duct supports, damage to wiring and connected EWIS, cable and pulley wear,
fluid leaks, electrical bonding, general condition of fasteners, inadequate drainage, etc., and
general corrosion, not covered in the MSG-3 analysis. The zonal inspection is not intended
as a quality assurance after maintenance check for determining proper reassembly of
systems, components, structures, or powerplants. The zonal program packages a number of
General Visual (GV) Inspections into one or more zonal inspections. The program includes
any GV inspection tasks required to assure security of attachment and general condition of
any system or structural items within the zone.

2. Equivalent Tools, Fixtures, Test Equipment, and Consumable Materials
b) When the procedures in this manual identify tools, equipment, and consumable materials,
you can use equivalent alternatives. If you use alternative tools, equipment, or consumable
materials, make sure that they give the same results and are as safe to the parts and
personnel as the tools, equipment, or consumable materials specified in the procedure.

4. General Visual Inspection
A. General
1. The following paragraph provides a definition to be used during a scheduled maintenance
task.
B. Inspection
1. Do the General Visual inspection. A General Visual inspection is a visual examination of an
interior or exterior area, installation or assembly to detect obvious damage, failure or
irregularity. This level of inspection is made from within touching distance unless otherwise
specified. A mirror may be necessary to ensure visual access to all surfaces in the
inspection area. This level of inspection is made under normally available lighting conditions
such as daylight, hangar lighting, flashlight or drop-light and may require removal or opening
of access panels or doors. Stands, ladders or platforms may be required to gain proximity to
the area being checked.

4. Detailed Visual Inspection
A. General
1. The following paragraph provides a definition to be used during a scheduled maintenance
task.
B. Inspection
1. Do the Detailed Visual inspection. A Detail Visual inspection is an intensive examination of a
specific item, installation to detect irregularity. Available lighting is normally supplemented
with a direct source of good lighting at an intensity deemed appropriate. Inspection aids such
as mirrors, magnifying lenses, etc. may be necessary. Surface cleaning and elaborate
access procedures may be required.
