Airframe Electrical System
Question: What is the maximum acceptable voltage drop from the voltage source to the utilization equipment's ground in a 28 volt system?
(Source: FAA AC 43.13-1B/2B)
Can two 25,000-Btu room air conditioners be wired into the same electricalcircuit protected by a 25-ampere fuse? Each air conditioner is rated at 3,050watts for a 230-volt circuit. (This rating is while the air conditioner is runningsteadily.)
When calculating a dwelling lighting load on the "volt-ampere per ft" basis, the receptacle load used for floor lamps, table lamps, and so forth are
