1.9 Electrical System
1.9.1 General
The satisfactory performance of an aircraft is dependent upon the continued reliability of the
electrical system. Damaged wiring or equipment in an aircraft, regardless of how minor it may
appear to be, cannot be tolerated. Reliability of the system is proportional to the amount of
maintenance received and the knowledge of those who perform such maintenance. It is, therefore,
important that maintenance be accomplished using the best techniques and practices to minimize
the possibility of failure.
1.9.2 Description
The Electrical system consists of a dry-cell type, 12 volt battery mounted aft in the fuselage; a
generator internal to the Rotax engine; a voltage regulator mounted to the firewall; a master
solenoid mounted to the battery box; and, switches and instruments mounted in the panel.
Information on the regulator and alternator are available in the engine manual. Basic engine and
flight instruments that are factory installed should refer to the manufacturer’s installation and repair
procedures. Any qualified maintenance repairman, A & P, or FAA certified avionics shop may
maintain in accordance with the ASTM standards.
NOTE:
no major repair or alteration, as outlined in ASTM 2483, are authorised at this time. For
eventually obtaining engineering approval for any major repair or alteration, contact Zlin Aviation.
