The chapters that follow give the general design requirements related to the electrical installations identification on aircraft.

WIRES AND HARNESS IDENTIFICATION (Airbus)

The chapters that follow give the general identification requirements related to the electrical wire and bundle on aircraft.

WIRE IDENTIFICATION BY THE SUPPLIER (Airbus)

This topic covers the identification and the markings made by the manufacturer during the manufacture of the wires and cables. Definitions : AWG : American Wire Gauge. Conductor : The conductor is the conducting element of the cable formed from one or more strands. Core : Assembly of a conductor and insulation which then form part of a complete single or multiconductor cable. Cable or wire : A cable is an assembly consisting of a conductor, insulation and, where applicable, a sheath, screen or jacket.

All the wire types (US and Metric) agree with Standards (ABS, ASNE, EN, NSA,...).

(Ref. para. 4)

There are two families of wire types:

The United States (US) wire types are installed on A300/A310/A300-600. Their core diameter has US diameters. e.g. AKA gauge 24 has 19 strands diameter 0.127 mm (0.0050 in.) .

The Metric (M) wire types are installed on the other Airbus A/C for weight saving. e.g. CF gauge 24 has 19 strands diameter 0.12 mm (0.0047 in.) .

If it is necessary to replace a US type wire on the aircraft and if the US type wire is no longer available, you can use an interchangeable Metric wire (Ref. one way interchangeability tables (US->Metric)). All the Metric wires are available.

(c) ABS/ASNE/EN -> EN

4. Wire Type Codes

NOTE: The tables that follow give the characteristics and the related P/Ns for each wire type. For a wire type code, if there are several related P/Ns, these wires have the same structure and the P/Ns are fully interchangeable.

NOTE: You must use the applicable tools to strip the wires (US or Metric). Refer to ESPM chapter 20-25-11.

* Screened and sheathed multi-core

To avoid confusion when wiring, the manufacturer has marked the letters "A-B" every 30 cm (11.81 in.). The "A" side corresponds to the end where the conductor is on the right. At the "A" end the conductor colours are, in a clockwise direction:

This identification consists of the manufacturer's identification twisted threads and two threads for the year of manufacture (Ref. tables 5 and 6). - For single wire, threads are inserted during the manufacturing phase between the core and the insulating sheath or between the external sheath and the insulation sheath. - For multi wire, twisted or not, threads are inserted between the external sheath and the conductors. The thread and printing must resist the maximum operating temperature of the wires.

All cables connected on the aircraft must be identified. It is the functional identification of the cable.

A numeric reference system is used for cable identification. A cable is identified by two groups of four figures with a space between them. The first four figures are the ATA 100 circuit reference followed by as many as four figures that give the number of the cable in the circuit.

| | |

| | -------- Wire color code (if necessary)

| |

| -------------- No. of the cable in the circuit

|

--------------------- No. of the circuit defined by ATA Spec 100

Cable marking procedures depend on the category of the cables. There are three main categories of cable: - Printable cables. - Non-printable cables. - Cables without marking.

(Ref. Fig. 001)

Printable cables are identified by direct marking of the identification on the insulation, at regular intervals.

NOTE: The code N is obsolete for cables. When you see this on a cable it is the some as BK.

3. Cable Number

NOTE: Cables shorter than 75 mm (2.9527 in.) screens, bonding cables shorter than 300 mm (11.8110 in.) and shunts need no identification.

A. Cable Identification Rules

NOTE: If necessary, one more figure is added after these two groups to identify the color of the cable. If necessary, one more figure is added (letter "S") to identify the safety cable.

NOTE: Some cables have the FIN 0000-000X. These cables do not have an electrical function. They are used to increase the diameter of the harness to which they belong.

B. Cable Marking

(1) Printable cables

NOTE: We recommend to print cables with a length from 75 mm (2.9527 in.) to 150 mm (5.9055 in.) but identification with one identification sleeve is permitted.

(a) Definition





This category mainly concerns:

(Ref. Fig. 002) (Ref. Fig. 003)

Non-printable cables are cables that cannot have direct marking due to their physical structure or whose insulation can be deteriorated by marking (e.g. coaxial cables). This category includes:

Cables are identified with sleeves NSA937201. -------------------------------------------------------------

- 26 to 6 gauge cables longer than 75 mm (2.9527 in.) (aircraft harnesses or large VU harnesses).

(b) Operation

- For single-core cables, hot stamp marking or laser marking will be used depending on the coating code. - For shielded cables, laser marking will be used.

Printing will be performed on the whole length of the cable. - For cables shorter than

2000 mm (78.7402 in.) : at a maximum pitch of 75 mm (2.9527 in.) . - For cables longer than

2000 mm (78.7402 in.) : - at a maximum pitch of 75 mm (2.9527 in.) along a length of 1 m from each end. - at a maximum pitch of 380 mm (14.9606 in.) on the center portion of the cable.

(c) Special cases

-

If a modification calls for the shortening of a cable in the zone of the 75 mm (2.9527 in.) pitch ( 1000 mm (39.3701 in.) ) from each end, you will install a cable identification sleeve at the shortened end.

-

Cables connected to control and indicating items of equipment such as switches, annunciator lights or magnetic indicators installed outside VUs will have the identification (NSA937201, NSA 937203 or E0646 sleeve) of the terminal to which they are connected.

-

You can put markings on some optical cables (e.g. ABS0963-003) with UV laser but you cannot use hot stamping.

(2) Non-printable cables or cables with Identification Sleeves

(a) Definition

- Large gauge cables (gauge 14 and below), (except the cables printed by CO2 laser mentioned previously). - Draw and spare cables. - Usual medium gauge cables, length less than

2500 mm (98.4252 in.) , located inside electronics racks. - All cables printable by hot stamping and connected to at least one end termination (VN, VG, VC) located in a Skydrol zone (ref. Specific Areas chapters). - Safety cables identified by the letter S. - Optical cables (depending on the code type). - Coaxial cables.

NOTE: We recommend to print cables with a length from 75 mm (2.9527 in.) to 150 mm (5.9055 in.) but identification with one identification sleeve is permitted.

NOTE: Cables with a length of more than 150 mm (5.9055 in.) must be identified with one sleeve at each end.

NOTE: You must install identification sleeves on branches and junctions (only if branch and junction lengths are more than 1 m (3.28 ft.) ).

NOTE: If the harness has no branches, you must attach a VB marking to the harness at intervals of 2 m (6.56 ft.) . This is not applicable if the harness is supplied in raceways or if other interval values are specified in the design document.

(b) Operation

The sleeves will be adapted to the cable gauge and installed as close as possible to the terminations ( 150 mm (5.9055 in.) max.). These sleeves can be printed to show the cable identification characters. Markings must be clearly legible, abrasion-proof and resistant to aircraft liquids (synthetic hydraulic fluid, kerosene...) The character height is 3.2 mm (0.1259 in.) minimum. Sleeves installed on cables of a length of less than or equal to 2500 mm (98.4252 in.) in electrical power centers, pylons, SWAMP areas and SKYDROL areas will be shrunk. The sleeves are white, printed in black except for: - Safety cables (code S) that have pink sleeves, printed in black. - Aluminum cables that have grey sleeves printed in black for identification. For EFCS, when printing is not possible, two sleeves must be used: - One white sleeve (or grey for aluminum cable) with black printing for cable identification. - One pink sleeve with black printing for FIN on the harness.

(Ref. Fig. 002)

(Ref. Fig. 003)

The cable will have one (or several) sleeve at each end with the information below:

The color code is used to connect the cables (cables of the same color).

(Ref. Fig. 002) (only A300 / A300-600 / A310) Each cable has an identification number. If the cable is shielded, the shield will also have an identification sleeve.

(Ref. Fig. 002)

NOTE: When a safety cable is in aluminum, the sleeve must be pink and printed in black.

1 Single-core cables

- These cables are identified with sleeves NSA 937201 ME. - Sleeve length must be between

25 mm (0.9842 in.) and 35 mm (1.3779 in.) .

2 Sheathed multi-core cables (cores of different colors)

a The multi-core cable and the cores have different identification markings (only A300 / A300-600 / A310).

- the identification of each cable with its color code, - the identification of the assembly (the multi-core cable).

b The multi-core cable and the cores have the same identification marking (A320 to A380 family).

3 Sheathed multi-core cables (cores of same color)

4 Twisted cables without sheath





The identification will be printed on a sleeve at the ends of each cable.

Each cable has a different identification. The color code is a letter. To do the identification, you can use:

When the three-core cables for phases have cores of the same color, use red, yellow and blue sleeves to identify phases A, B and C respectively. The sleeve will be installed at the rear of the terminal crimping zone. Sleeve P/N: NSA 937201 MA... (the sleeve dia. will match the wire dia.). When the three-core twisted cables have cores of different colors, do not use these phase identification sleeves. The phase identification rule is: - Phase A : red - Phase B : yellow - Phase C : blue

(Ref. Fig. 004)

A specific label E0248 attached with NSA8420 lacing tape is used: - at 2 m (6.56 ft.) intervals on straight line harnesses. - next to pressure seals, floors, partitions, etc. for harnesses that go through them. - adjacent to end components (at each end of the cable). - adjacent to optical cable exits (when the optical cable routing is in a standard harness).

A specific sleeve NSA937201 is installed adjacent to the end components to give information.

NOTE: If a twisted cable is partially untwisted over a length >= 200 mm (7.8740 in.) , you must install an additional identification sleeve on each individual cable.

c Phase identification special case

(c) Special cases

1 Ground pick-ups on safety cables

- Ground pick-ups on safety cables will be identified by a pink sleeve printed in black. - If a grounding chain is made on a group of shielded safety cables, only the last ground pick-up cable will be identified by a pink sleeve printed in black. - When safety and normal cable pick-ups are mixed, only the last ground pick-up cable will be identified by a pink sleeve printed in black.

C. Specific Identification Marking

NOTE: You must not shrink the sleeve NSA937201.

(1) For optical cables:

NOTE: You can use sleeves to identify the optical cable, because they are easy to make. If you use a shrink sleeve, do not shrink it after installation.

NOTE: A specific label ABS0724 or NSA931025 is installed adjacent to the optical connectors to show the special precautions related to this type of connector.

NOTE: You must not use cable ties to attach the label. This can cause damage to the cable.

(2) For spare wire identification :

(3) For draw wire identification :





A specific label E0248 is installed:

HARNESS FUNCTIONAL IDENTIFICATION - DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

1. General

A. Definition





A harness is a group of cables attached together. All cables are identified (Ref. chapter 20-32-22). A vendor or the airframe manufacturer can supply some harnesses (for example in some radio or fuel systems). Such harnesses will have a FIN and will be identified as all other components. If supplied by a vendor (code YY), it will have a part number. If made by the airframe manufacturer, it will have a drawing number. Only the graphic symbol on the wiring diagram will identify the difference between two such cases.

For safety and to prevent possible interference, electrical harnesses are routed in relation to their type and function in a number of physically isolated routes. These wiring segregations or routes are divided into categories related to the aircraft type. A 2-digit reference is used to identify these categories (Ref. chapter 20-33-20).

Flags and labels on harnesses give many types of data:

This harness identification prevents the risk of harness inversion. The labels used are white. This identification type on harnesses must give the data that follows: (Ref. Fig. 001)

(Ref. Fig. 002) If the harness has no branches, you must attach a VB marking to the harness at intervals of 2 m (6.56 ft.) . This is not applicable if the harness is supplied in a raceway and if other interval values are specified in the design document. Labels are not necessary on branches shorter than 1 m (3.28 ft.) .

(Ref. Fig. 002) Cables that stop at the same connecting component are identified by a label E0248 (4 holes). The identification can show the electrical identifier of the component written on one or two lines centered:

(1) Harness

(2) Wiring segregations or routes

2. Harness identification

A. Principle

- Positioning data such as the frame: These positioning flags give harness pick-up points for correct installation of the harness on the aircraft.

- Functional data (routes, sub-routes): These functional identification labels must show the routes in the harness and be in a position to prevent all risks of errors caused by in-service retrofit work.

- Functional Item Number (FIN) identification at harness end: You must identify harness ends with E0248A labels (4 holes) where the identification of the end is shown. For typical harnesses, these labels are white with black printing and are attached with two cable ties NSA935401.

NOTE: In severe environment areas, you must use and attach labels E0248A (6 holes) with three cable ties NSA935401.

- They are usually put in areas of high wiring density: At each harness end, at maximum intervals of 4 m (13.12 ft.) ,in the same area (frame or rib). For harnesses with a diameter of less than 5 mm (0.1968 in.) , you must replace labels E0248 with sleeves NSA937201. For pylon harnesses, you must use white shrunk sleeve NSA937201 or white E0248A (6 holes). The identification includes the FIN of the termination with, in some cases, the abbreviated functional designation. These markers are found 130 mm (5.1181 in.) maximum from the end. A380 wing route identification must be at each harness end and at intervals of 2 meters so that you can see the harness identification.

B. General Harness Marking

(1) Identification of harness characteristics

- Part number of the harness (e.g. L9299812500000) - Constituent assembly code (e.g. LB682) - Harness number (e.g. 8125VB) - Serial number (e.g. SER PL1001).

(2) VB marking

(3) Harness end identification





- horizontally in relation to the vertical sides of the placard, - vertically in relation to the placard attachment holes. (Ref. Electrical Items Functional Identification chapter: 20-32-51)

Positioning flags are not used in this aircraft family.

(Ref. Fig. 003) This positioning and route identification is a reference given on a maximum of 3 lines, parallel to the harness axis: - First line: Zone or geographical location of the harness (19 characters maximum). - Second or third line: Routes and sub-routes (19 characters maximum in each line). The character height is 4.5 mm (0.1771 in.) . Example: C10/PL

1S/1SF/1SL

(Ref. Fig. 004) Positioning flags and route identification labels are used together. There must be a distance of 40 mm (1.5748 in.) between the two labels. Harness identification is a reference given with: - Positioning flag: shows the axis of the structural item used as a reference. - Identification label: Routes and sub-routes. Examples: F35 (positioning label)

1S/1SF/1S1 (identification label)

(Ref. Fig. 003) Cable harnesses are identified with adhesive label E0683 or label E0248.

The identification marking is made with E0683 labels. This type of marking is yellow, self-adhesive and stamped in black. The reference will be shown on the label as many times as possible in relation to the loom diameter (a minimum of two times). The positioning of the label on the harness is related to the wiring direction. The positioning of the marking must be as shown in the drawings.

The identification marking is label E0248-6H attached to the harness with lacing tape NSA8420 or sleeve NSA937201. This type of marking is yellow and stamped in black.

C. Positioning Flags and Route Identification Labels - Marking

(1) For A300, A300/600 and A310 only:

(2) For A318, A319, A320 and A321 only:

NOTE: Positioning flags must stay in position on the aircraft and not be moved from their initial position.

NOTE: Labels for route identification can be bonded on the structure (frame).

(3) For A330, A340 and A380 only:

NOTE: Positioning flags must stay in position on the aircraft and not be moved from their initial position.

D. Label Type and Installation Procedure

NOTE: The reference number must be written permanently.

(1) For A318, A319, A320 and A321 only

(a) Standard harnesses

NOTE: When the harness has protective sleeves longer than 500 mm (19.6850 in.) , the identification marking must be label E0248 put on the protective sleeve ends, 10 mm (0.3937 in.) from the clamps.

(b) Sheathed pylon harnesses





(Ref. Fig. 004) Cable harnesses are identified by identification label E0248-6H and positioning flag ASNA5107 or ABS5342-02. Flag ASNA5107 or ABS5342-02 is used to show the correct position of the harness on the structure. This flag is blue with a straight black line 1 mm (0.0393 in.) thick and gives the mechanical position reference.

(Ref. Fig. 006) For a harness at a hinge, a minimum length is necessary to prevent tears or breaks of the harness. To make sure you have a correct installation of the harness, you must install ASNA5107 flags along the reference axes of the first attachment items on the two sides of the hinge. These positions must be shown in the harness installation drawings. In this case, flag ASNA5107 is used for positioning, identification and to increase the mechanical protection of the harness below the clamp.

(Ref. Fig. 006) You must install positioning flags ABS5342, if possible, on wires without protective hose or braid. For split conduits EN6049-006/007, you can install the flag below the conduit but you must make sure that the flag can be seen externally.

(Ref. Fig. 006) The route identification for spare conduits must be with labels E0248 with black markings on a yellow background. They are attached with cable ties NSA935401 or lacing tape NSA8420.

(Ref. Fig. 002)

(Ref. Fig. 006) A special label ABS1475 is added. It is a pre-printed E0248 type label.

(2) For A330, A340 and A380 only

-

For G routes, you must install the labels on each cable.

-

For harnesses protected with convoluted conduit (e.g. ABS0887 or NSA935805) you must install the flag on the harness (in harness area not protected with conduit) or on the conduit (if protection is installed on all the length of the harness).

-

An identification label must be installed adjacent to a positioning flag: 50 mm (1.9685 in.) maximum and 30 mm (1.1811 in.) minimum from the positioning flag.

-

The positioning flag must be installed so that the black line is along the axis of the structural item used as a reference.

-

When they are part of or attached in a harness, you must identify non-essential routes by yellow ABS5342-01 labels installed at maximum intervals of 1 m (3.28 ft.) on straight parts of the harness.

-

For the installation of flags on optical cables, you must obey the special procedure. (Ref. Fig. 005)

-

For A380 only, you must identify essential and non-essential routes with yellow E0248-6H labels or equivalent installed at 2 m (6.56 ft.) intervals.

(3) On dynamic harnesses (between a mobile and fixed part)

NOTE: If, adjacent to the last clamp, the last identification is with a white label E0248, label ASNA5107 is only used to increase the mechanical protection of the harness below the clamp and the positioning flag.

(4) Identification on split conduits

(5) Route identification for spare conduits

3. Specific Harness Marking

NOTE: You must not shrink sleeve NSA937201.

A. Identification on the structure at pressure seal or connector flange area

- You must install an adhesive label as near as possible to the pressure seal or connector flange on the panel or structure. You must make sure that you can clearly see this label. - Connector flanges installed in areas that you can see from the front and rear must have markings only on the front panel or structure. - Connector flanges that you cannot see from the rear must have markings on two sides of the panel or structure. - Pressure seals must have markings on two sides of the panel or structure.

B. For Q routes

- The text "CAUTION FUEL TANK HARNESS ONLY" is written in red on a white background. - You must attach this label with lacing tape NSA8420 or cable tie NSA935401.

You must tie-install this label: - at intervals of





You must use a specific identification with label E0248 attached with lacing tape NSA8420: - at intervals of 2 m (6.56 ft.) on straight line harnesses - adjacent to pressure seals, floors, partitions, etc. for harnesses that go through - adjacent to end components - adjacent to optical cable exits (when the optical cable is routed in a standard harness).

ELECTRICAL ITEMS IDENTIFICATION (Airbus)

The chapter that follows gives the general design requirements related to the electrical item identification on aircraft.

ELECTRICAL ITEMS FUNCTIONAL IDENTIFICATION (Airbus)

1.2 m (3.93 ft.) (maximum pitch) on straight line harnesses - adjacent to pressure seals, floors, partitions, etc. for harnesses that go through - adjacent to end components - not applicable in fuel tanks.

C. For Electrical Flight Control System (EFCS)

- FIN labels are pink with black printing. They are attached with lacing tape NSA8420 or cable tie NSA935401. - For EFCS harnesses without other harnesses in their routing, cable ties or lacing tape can be used to attach identification labels. - For EFCS harnesses with other harnesses, you must use lacing tape NSA8420 to prevent damage to adjacent harnesses caused by the heads of cable ties.

D. For optical harnesses (one or more cables):

NOTE: As an alternative, you can use a sleeve (e.g. NSA937201ME) but you must not shrink it.

NOTE: A special label ABS0724 or NSA931025 is installed adjacent to the optical connectors to show special precautions related to this type of connector.

ELECTRICAL ITEMS IDENTIFICATION - DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

1. General


A. Electrical Item Functional Identification (Ref. 20-32-51)





This chapter gives the identification and marking rules applicable to the standard electrical items.

The electrical equipment items on the aircraft are identified by a unique identifier designated Functional Item Number. (FIN) The composition of the FIN differs between the various AIRBUS families:

Example: 301RH1A1

Example: 2512VN024

ELECTRICAL ITEMS FUNCTIONAL IDENTIFICATION - DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

1. General

NOTE: Boxes, panels or equipment containing parts with voltages exceeding 42 V which are liable to expose maintenance personnel to hazardous operations must have a label reading: "CAUTION HIGH VOLTAGE INSIDE". This label must have 6 mm (0.2362 in.) white letters on a red background.

2. Electrical Items Functional-Identification Definition

A. Functional Item Numbers (FIN)

(1) For WB, SA and LR programs only:

- Example for WB and SA programs: 301 RH 1 A 1

| | | | |

| | | | -- Supplementary part identification

| | | | (backshell, housing, etc.)

| | | ----- Connector identification (up to three letters)

| | -------- Suffix (up to three numbers)

| ----------- Circuit letter code

---------------- Sequence number

- Example for LR program: 1115 VN 412

| | |

| | -------- Suffix (up to three numbers)

| ------------ Circuit letter code

------------------ Sequence number

(a) The composition of the FIN is:

- A two-letter code that shows to which system or circuit the equipment belongs or that shows, for all components not specifically related to a circuit, a fictitious circuit (letter V) and the type of component. - Suffixes which give the unique identification for individual items of equipment. - Connector identification when it is a part of an item and the same FIN number as this item. - Supplementary part identification (backshell, housing, etc.) when this part of an item has the same FIN number as this item.

NOTE: Identical components which have the same function in the same circuit are differentiated by a suffix number. The general rule is that an even suffix identifies a component on the right-hand side and an odd suffix identifies a component on the left-hand side. Example: 14CA1

(2) For A380 only:

(a) For circuits VC, VD, VG, VN, VP, VS and VT, the FIN format consists of 9 digits:

- The first digit indicates the installation area. - The 2nd, 3rd and 4th digits indicate the partner allocation number. - The two-letter code indicates the fictitious circuit (V) and the type of component (N). - The last three numbers indicate the detailed location or multiple elements of the component.

(b) For circuits VB, VE and VX, the FIN format consists of 7 to 9 digits:





Example: nnnnVBnnn

Example: 1115VU1

Fictitious circuits (letter V) are allocated to types of components that cannot be identified as part of a specific system circuit.

VB = Cable bundle/harness VC = Connector (appended letter A, B, etc. is added to identify the free connector: E.g. 1204VC A)

VD = Module diode unit VE*= Panel. (commercial) (not used for WB and SA programs) VG = Screwed ground terminal block VI = Connector plate/mount VN = Ground point VP = Pressure seal VR = Resistance VS = Splice VT = Terminal block VU*= Panel VX*= Printed circuit board assembly VZ*= Spare cable * These fictitious components are not given in the ESPM.

Components which are directly associated with a geographical block or which have interfaces with severals circuits. All these fictitious components are identified in the equipment list of their fictitious circuit. There are different kinds of fictitious-circuit electrical components:

The EFCS harnesses have specific connectors (VC). These connectors make the interface between: - The different EFCS harnesses. - The EFCS harnesses and equipment.

- The 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th numerical digits indicate the partner allocation number. - The two-letter code indicates the fictitious circuit (V) and the type of component. - The last three numbers indicate the multiple elements of the component. (It is possible to use only one number)

(c) For circuit VU, the FIN format consists of 7 to 9 digits:

- The 1st and 2nd numerical digits indicate the partner allocation number. - The 3rd and 4th numerical digits (00) indicate a main assembly containing sub-assemblies. - For the 4th digit:

An odd number indicates the left side. (Except 5) An even number indicates the right side. Number "5" indicates a panel located on the aircraft centerline.

- The two-letter code indicates the fictitious circuit (V) and the type of component (U). - The last three numbers indicate the multiple elements of the component. (It is possible to use only one number)

B. Fictitious Circuit (letter V)

(1) The codes of these fictitious circuits are:

NOTE: For A380, there is no space or dash before the appended letter.

(2) Examples:

- Components covered by a standard part number E.g.: VS (splice), VP (pressure seals), VC (connector), etc.

- Components designed to support and assemble electrical items for a given function, usually integrating several items of equipment and/or cables of different circuits. These components are covered by an aircraft drawing number. E.g.: VB (cable bundle), VX (printed electronic circuit board)

C. Electrical Flight Control System (EFCS)





- The EFCS harnesses and the different VU panels to which they are connected. The EFCS harnesses and equipment are clearly identified by a pink or red mark. Identification of each item is made by a permanent label that shows the functional item number. (FIN)

(Ref. Fig. 001) (Ref. Fig. 002) (Ref. Fig. 003) (Ref. Fig. 004) The ways to mark the items depend on the item categories and location. There are three ways to mark: - Self-adhesive label (ABS0724, E0470, E0683 or NSA931025). - Identification Sleeve (E0646, NSA937201 or NSA937203). The functional identification of equipment may be given on white sleeves when it is difficult to install labels near the equipment. These sleeves must be positioned immediately after the identification of the connector, or include this identification. Functional identification sleeves must be fitted where equipment is removable from its front face. - Identification label (ABS1475 or E0248) with NSA935401 (TY-RAP type).

In pressurized area:

An indelible and visible marking must identify the ventilation holes, located at the bottom of equipment racks (ARINC 600).The identification rule is applicable on all items fitted with ventilation holes (e.g ventilation boxes). This marking can be made manually by a line, a band or an other marking, which remains visible when the support in installed on the shelf.

The labels are positioned above or to the left of items, and under exceptional conditions below and to the right of items. They are always visible when items are in place. They are printed in white on black background or black on white background.

A self-adhesive label is bonded to the support on each side of the pressure seal.

No self-adhesive label is necessary.

3. Electrical Items Functional-Identification Marking

NOTE: If reading of the label proves to be difficult during the maintenance operation, or in case of ambiguity, a second label that shows the type of equipment as indicated on the wiring diagram will also be added to the loom. The ways to mark must be designed taking into account temperature ranges and environmental constraints.

A. Item Identification on Panels and Racks

(1) Marking type

(a) On panels or racks, the functional identification marking is:

- With ABS0724 or E0470 for normal system. - With PINK ABS0724 or PINK E0470 for EFCS system.

In non-pressurized area: - With NSA931025 for normal system. - With PINK NSA931025 for EFCS system.

NOTE: In non-pressurized area, it is necessary to bond label with material number 09-008C and to apply varnish material number 07-018 to the label.

(b) On circuit breaker panels, use labels:

- For areas free of hydraulic fluid, in accordance with NSA931025 Type 01, - For areas in which hydraulic fluid (e.g.: Skydrol or Hyjet IV) is found, in accordance with NSA931025 Type 02.

(2) Identification of unplugged ventilation holes

(3) Operation

(a) Pressure seals (VP)

(b) Splices and Diodes

(c) Ground modules (VG) and ground points (VN)





Bond a self-adhesive label to the support near the ground module or point.

The terminal blocks are identified by a label fixed to the support, near the rail.

On circuit breakers or coded equipment items directly connected on aircraft, etc. install a self-adhesive label on the support near the equipment.

All specific EFCS equipment items (connectors, terminal blocks, relays) are identified clearly and permanently with a pink or red adhesive label (E0248) bonded to the structure near each item.

(Ref. Fig. 005) (Ref. Fig. 006)

Bundles of items are identified:

These types of marking are made of plastic. They are white for standard bundles or pink for the bundles of EFCS items, with FIN marking in black. They are installed on the cable bundle at 130 mm (5.1181 in.) maximum from the end. If the harness has no branch, you must attach a VB marking to the harness at intervals of 2 m (6.56 ft.) . This is not applicable if the harness is supplied in raceways and if other interval values are specified in the design documents. Labels are not necessary on branches shorter than 1 m (3.28 ft.) . Their position on the bundle will make correct reading possible when the bundle terminations are connected. Safety cables are identified by a pink colored sleeve or with the letter "S" printed at the end of the P/N. (E.g.: 3151-0309S)

(d) Stud-type or modular terminal blocks (VT)

(e) Miscellaneous equipment

NOTE: Relays with the spike suppression function must be identified with an additional blue mark on the structure adjacent to the FIN label.

(f) Relays

1 On A380:

- Use identification label ABS0724-006A013 for Normal relays on Normal system. (Label has white background with black letters) - Use identification label ABS0724-006P013 for Normal relays on EFCS system. (Label has pink background with black letters) - Use identification label ABS0724-006B013 for spike suppression relay on Normal system. (Label has blue background with black letters) - Use identification label ABS0724-006 for spike suppressioN relay on EFCS system. (Label has blue and pink background with black letters)

(g) Specific Items

B. Item Identification on Cable Bundles

(1) Marking type

- For cables subjected to temperatures above 150 deg.C (302.00 deg.F) , with E0248 labels and NSA935401 cable-tie (TY-RAP type).

- For wiring subjected to temperatures above 260 deg.C (500.00 deg.F) , with NSA937201 sleeves. This identification sleeve or label has:

- In all cases, the FIN of the item. - When the bundle ends in a VU, the VU number. - And if necessary, the functional designation. - On harness with diameter less than

5 mm (0.1968 in.) , the identification label must be replaced by a sleeve NSA937201.

NOTE: In vibration areas or in Severe Weather and Moisture Prone (SWAMP) areas, you must use a label E0248 16HP (6 holes) with three tie-wrap NSA935401.

NOTE: It is necessary to shrink the sleeves in electrical power centers or in areas that have severe environnemental conditions.

NOTE: Identification sleeves must be in a position as near as possible to the connection you must identify (max. distance 100 mm (3.9370 in.) ). If necessary, you can attach these sleeves with cable ties to prevent sliding.

NOTE: Identification sleeves can be shrunk. In this case, it must still be possible to turn, slide and read them.

(2) Operation





For EFCS harness:

Install an identification label E0248 on the ARINC 600 and 404A connectors (ABS0831, E0161, E0163, E0165, E0086, E0145, E0147, E0726 and E0729 ) or derived connectors.

(Ref. Fig. 007)

A group of splices (max. 4) is identified by a label E0248 positioned near the group.

A sleeve is installed on each side of the component.

No identification sleeve.

A diode is identified by a sleeve NSA935201, on the cable, positioned alongside the diode.

The pressure seals through which the cable bundle is routed are identified by two E0248 labels with NSA935401 (TY-RAP type), one on each side of the seal.

With or without cut-to-length: Install a label E0248.

All specific EFCS equipment items (connectors, terminal blocks, relays, circuit-breakers) are clearly and permanently identified with pink or red labels (E0248) printed in black, which are indelible and clearly visible and bonded to the structure near the items.

- If the harness is routed alone, use tie-wrap NSA935401 with labels. - If the harness is routed with other harnesses, use lacing tape NSA8420 with labels.

(a) Rack connectors

NOTE: When segregation is required, the identification is installed on one bundle and does not include the other routes.

(b) Optical connectors

- A specific label ABS0724 or NSA931025 is installed near the optical connectors to indicate particular precautions related to this type of connector.

NOTE: You must use lacing tape NSA8420 to attach the identification labels. The use of NSA935401 is not permitted to prevent damage to optical fiber harnesses.

NOTE: To make installation of the identification easier, the use of a sleeve is permitted. If you use a shrink sleeve, you must not shrink it to prevent damage.

(c) Ground modules (VG) and ground points (VN)

- On the harnesses: A label E0248 with the FIN. (A340 only) - In the racks or boxes: No identification sleeve or label. - A self-adhesive label is affixed on the structure near the module or grounding point.

(d) Stud-type or modular terminal blocks (VT)

- Terminal blocks are identified by a self-adhesive label affixed to the structure near the rail. - Wiring of stud-type terminal blocks (power): Install a label E0248. - Wiring of modular terminal blocks (signal): No plate to be installed. - The standard electrical items (e.g. resistors) mounted on a terminal block are identified by a sleeve NSA 937201.

This sleeve (shortened to minimum length) is placed on the component tail and must not prevent cooling.

(e) Splices (VS)

1 Not removable, not reducing

2 Diodes and removable splices

NOTE: If the splice is inside a split textile conduit, the identification label must be over the split textile conduit.

3 Reducing splices

(f) Diode

(g) Pressure Seal (VP)

(h) Coded equipment items directly connected on aircraft

(i) Specific items

(j) Shielding continuity connection





A white background sleeve printed in black identifies shielding continuity connections. Pink background sleeves printed in black identify shielding continuity connections on safety cables. Where shielding continuity is made with several cables with at least one safety cable, only a pink background sleeve with black printing identifies the last shielding continuity cable.

(Ref. Fig. 007) A label is provided at the locations where direct access can be made by the maintenance operator. (Not required inside fuel tanks) Along the Q route harness, a specific identification must be used. (ABS1475)

On circuit breakers, relays, connectors (VC or VD), no identification label. (E0248)

(Ref. Fig. 008) For marking with E0248 labels and E0470 adhesive labels refer to para. (b).1_ and (b).2_.

The electrical boxes have a label E0470 with the VU identification Number and a label NSA931025 with the Aircraft Number (MSN)

In small VUs, the cables (BF or CF type) have the sleeve E0646MF (EX NSA937204 MF) marked with the identification of the connection terminal of the related end. But this type of sleeve is not used for the items below:
