Today we somehow end up in Emergency Electrical Config. Following the failure of both generators we run through the ECAM and follow up by taking a look at the QRH Emergency Electrical Config Summary.
Acronyms used in this video:
ECAM - Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring
EWD - Engine/Warning Display
FAC - Flight Augmentation Computer
RAT - Ram Air Turbine
Trivia:
- Generator switching - Regarding the order of initial generator switching – We realise that this may seem a little contentious to some and appear almost at odds to ECAM logic. The AFM (Airplane Flight Manual) states ‘Turn off then on all generators one after the other’. Note: The AFM is not usually available to line pilots – this sits as a master document to the FCOM and is the one which the aircraft is certified via. It’s a great point of discussion all the same, and something we would like to encourage.
- During the summary we state that the centre tank fuel may be unusable – this varies between airframe
