3.3.10 ALTERNATOR FAILURE
Alternator output failure may be indicated by the low
voltage annunciator illuminating. The alternator circuit
breaker may trip. Output failure may be the result of a
mechanical failure of the alternator or breaking of the
alternator belt.
Master Switch ................................................................. Off
Circuit Breakers ..................................................... Check In
If the alternator drive-belt failure is NOT obvious and NO
circuit breakers are out:
Master Switch ................................................................ On
If the drive belt failure is obvious, the circuit breaker is
out, or electrical power is NOT restored, determine what
electrical equipment is essential to continue the flight
and:
Master Switch ................................................................ On
Non-Essential Electrical Equipment ................................ Off
Land as soon as it is safe to do so
CAUTION
If the alternator has an internal failure, it may need to be
manually disconnected by pulling the circuit breaker. It is
unlikely you will be able to recover any alternator use
until alternator is replaced.
