What to do
Operators of affected Falcon 2000 aeroplanes must inspect the wiring bundle and measure clearance between the metallic plate and wiring within 25 months from 6 June 2018. If clearance is below specified limits, damaged wires must be replaced and the metallic plate modified before the next flight. Compliance with Dassault Service Bulletin F2000-436 is required to fulfill these actions.
Summary
EASA Airworthiness Directive 2018-0114 is an official safety directive affecting Dassault Aviation Falcon 2000 aeroplanes with manufacturer serial numbers 70 to 231 inclusive. The directive addresses potential chafing and damage to the electrical wiring bundle located at the bottom of the right-hand electrical cabinet. It mandates inspection and possible modification to ensure safe clearance between wiring and metallic components.
What changed
This new airworthiness directive introduces a one-time inspection requirement for the wiring bundle clearance and damage in the right-hand electrical cabinet of affected Falcon 2000 aircraft. It also requires modification of the metallic ground plate and replacement of any damaged wires if clearance criteria are not met. The directive is based on Dassault's modification M3889 and Service Bulletin F2000-436.
Why it matters
This directive is critical for aviation professionals because undetected chafing of electrical wiring can lead to system malfunctions and reduced aircraft control, posing safety risks. Operators and maintenance teams must ensure compliance to maintain airworthiness and avoid operational disruptions. It also helps prevent potential costly repairs by addressing wiring issues early.
