Electrical SystemContinued
• Master Switch is a Split Rocker type switch labeled MASTER• On is in the up Position, Off is in the Down Position• The Right Half is labeled BAT and connects Battery Power to Buses• The Left Half is labeled ALT, connects the Alternator
• Normally, BAT and ALT are used simultaneously• BAT can be turned on to check electrical equipment on the ground• When the ALT switch is OFF the entire system runs on battery

Electrical SystemContinued
• LOW VOLTAGE Annunciator, Will Illuminate when Voltage falls below 24.5 Volts
• OVERVOLTAGE :Alternator Control Unit automatically opens the ALT FLD circuit breaker, Shutting Off the Alternator
• Under these conditions, with normal power use, a low voltage condition will occur eventually, and the Low Volt annunciator will illuminate
• The Alternator Control unit may be then reset by resetting the ALT FLD circuit breaker
• If this occurs a second time, terminate the flight

Before we finish, some thoughts on Landings…
![Page 114: 1998 Cessna 172 S For Training Use Only Obtain actual weights, c.g, fluid capacities and dimensions from the Pilot Operating Handbook for your actual Training](https://reader037.vdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022103111/5516bf90550346f0208b57f2/html5/thumbnails/114.jpg)
You have seen the correct technique…
Main wheels touchdown 1st
![Page 115: 1998 Cessna 172 S For Training Use Only Obtain actual weights, c.g, fluid capacities and dimensions from the Pilot Operating Handbook for your actual Training](https://reader037.vdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022103111/5516bf90550346f0208b57f2/html5/thumbnails/115.jpg)
This is what can happen with “improper” technique..
The nose wheel touches 1st, followed by Mains, and a bounce results
![Page 116: 1998 Cessna 172 S For Training Use Only Obtain actual weights, c.g, fluid capacities and dimensions from the Pilot Operating Handbook for your actual Training](https://reader037.vdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022103111/5516bf90550346f0208b57f2/html5/thumbnails/116.jpg)
This is what can happen with “improper” technique..
A bounce occurs, and the airplane balloons up some distance
The Pilot over-reacts, and forces the nose to the runway
The resultant increase in velocity produces another bounce on touchdown, and the cycle starts again.
![Page 117: 1998 Cessna 172 S For Training Use Only Obtain actual weights, c.g, fluid capacities and dimensions from the Pilot Operating Handbook for your actual Training](https://reader037.vdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022103111/5516bf90550346f0208b57f2/html5/thumbnails/117.jpg)
The third cycle of this phenomena is where accidents typically occur.
The nose will contact first (again),
But the contact will likely be at such an angle to cause Substantial damage the structure, and result a collapsed
Nose wheel assembly
This typically also causes the Propeller to strike the ground causing damage to the Propeller and the Engine
![Page 118: 1998 Cessna 172 S For Training Use Only Obtain actual weights, c.g, fluid capacities and dimensions from the Pilot Operating Handbook for your actual Training](https://reader037.vdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022103111/5516bf90550346f0208b57f2/html5/thumbnails/118.jpg)
This is frequently the outcome of the second or third bounce…..
Nose wheel touches, and you bounce again.
![Page 119: 1998 Cessna 172 S For Training Use Only Obtain actual weights, c.g, fluid capacities and dimensions from the Pilot Operating Handbook for your actual Training](https://reader037.vdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022103111/5516bf90550346f0208b57f2/html5/thumbnails/119.jpg)
When the bounce occurs, level off, and Re-Land the Airplane normally if sufficient runway length remains.
If in doubt, go around after the First Bounce!
