Regulatory Requirements 

TSO C126, Paragraph D 

“The  conditions  and  tests  required  for  TSO  approval  of  this  article  are  minimum 
performance  standards.    It is  the  responsibility  of  those  desiring  to  install  this  article 
on  a  specific  type  or  class  of  aircraft  to  determine  that  the  aircraft  installation 
conditions  are  within  the  TSO standards.   The  article  may  be installed  only  if  further 
evaluation by the applicant documents an acceptable installation and it is approved by 
the administrator.” 

FAA Requirements 

In addition to the procedures outlined herein, the installer must adhere to the guidelines 
established  in  FAA  Advisory  Circular  (AC)  43.13  “Acceptable  Methods,  Techniques  and 
Practices Aircraft Alterations”, specifically Chapters 1 through 3, 11 and 13.  

By  signing  the  aircraft  logbook  or  FAA  Form  337,  you  are  stating  the  installation  has 
been  performed  in  accordance  with  current  FAR  requirements  and  the  steps  and 
procedures outlined herein.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions 

The ME-183 NAV is an electrostatic discharge sensitive (ESDS) device.  As such, it must 
be  handled  with  care.    If  possible,  wear  a  grounded  wrist  strap  or  ESD  protective 
footwear when handling the ME-183 NAV during installation and maintenance activities.  
Take particular care to avoid touching the exposed metal portion of the connectors and 
exposed receptacle pins on the ME-183 NAV and ELT.
