1 . Definition
EWIS : Electrical wiring interconnection system.
The aim of EWIS task is to minimize the accumulation of combustible material in a zone containing
wirings.
List of combustible material:
- dust, lint, fuel vapour, fuel leakage, oil mist, hydraulic mist.
- Vaporised synthetic oil and hydraulic fluids (e.g., skydrol) should be considered combustible for
EWIS purpose. In non-vaporised state where these fluids are not considered combustible, they are
a concern if they cause significant adherence of dust and lint.
The following materials should not be considered as ignitable:
- Uncontaminated insulation blanket, however blankets soaked with hydraulic fluids will become
combustible according to the flammability criteria of the hydraulic fluid. The only risk factor
introduced by the blanket is the propagation of the hydraulic contamination by capillarity.
- Structural corrosion inhibitors, i.e. Temporary Protection System, although there is a flash point
at ambient temperature.
- Moisture (though it may increase the probability of arcing)
- Wiring insulation
2 . General
This chapter gives general rules for electrical inspection/checks.
A. Whenever a wire is added, repaired, disconnected or reconnected, it is necessary:
- To make sure that the wire is correctly mechanically connected to the plug or terminal
block module (as applicable):
Example: For wires with crimp contacts, lightly pull the wire to make sure the crimping
is correct.
- To perform a continuity check and then do an operational or a functional test of the
related function.
B. Whenever a connector is disconnected/reconnected:
- Perform a visual check of the connector locking.
- Perform an operational test or a functional test of the related functions.

- drip loop.
The extra length must be between 30 mm (1.1811 in.) and 50 mm (1.9685 in.) . If the
extra length is more than 50 mm (1.9685 in.) , distribute the length along the harness to
get the 50 mm (1.9685 in.) value.
If you cannot distribute the extra length along the harness, cut the harness to the required
length.
(2) Extra length on (version) cabin furnishings harnesses
For these harnesses, the extra length is sufficient to adapt to different versions of cabin
layout.
If the extra length is more than 50 mm (1.9685 in.) , make a loop and if necessary, install
a dual support.

20-52-12 Ageing Checks
1 . General
This chapter gives general inspections of the electrical installation to find (and repair)
possible deterioration because of ageing.
CAUTION: TEMPORARILY SUPPORT AND/OR INSTALL PROTECTION FOR
THE HARNESS WHEN YOU REMOVE HARNESS ATTACHMENTS TO PREVENT
DAMAGE TO THE HARNESS.
2 . Harness Sagging
A. Description of wire harness sagging
Harness sagging is an increase in the length of harness between two
adjacent attachments that causes the harness to hang down too much.
Sagging occurs when the harness gradually moves from its initial
trajectory because of slippage at its attachments.
When this movement starts, it usually gets faster with time.
Sagging can cause:
- Possible loss of segregation,
- Wire damage because of chafing between the harness and the adjacent
structure and/or equipment and/or wiring and/or EWIS,
- Drip loops to become straight,
- Too much tension in the harness between attachments or at connectors.
B. How to find harness sagging on the aircraft.
Note: Cable harness usually hang down a little between adjacent attachments.
This is not an incorrect condition and action is necessary only if the
harness moves from its initial trajectory and hangs down too much between
two adjacent attachments.
To find sagging, look for these conditions:
- A harness that hangs down too much between two adjacent attachments
(Ref.20-52-11),
- No more segregation between harness (Ref.20-52-11),
- Risk of chafing between the harness and the adjacent structure and/or
equipment and/or wiring and/or EWIS (Ref.20-52-11),
- Missing drip loops/harness pulled straight.
(Ref. Fig. 001)
Note: The increased length between the attachments can come from:
- Drip loops,
- Stowed harness,
- Play in the harness at other locations.
C. Repair Procedure
03/05/2010 15
25. Advance copy ESPM 20-52-00
Do a check of the harness installation upstream and downstream of the sagging to find
the location(s) where there is too much tension or reduced length.
(Ref. Fig. 001)
Remove all the harness attachments between the sagging and the location(s) of reduced
length/too much tension.
Re-distribute the sagged length to the location of the excessive tension/reduced length.
Adjust the harness and do a check for.
- Loss of segregation,
- Risk of chafing,
- Too much tension,
- Presence of drip loops,
Adjust the harness again if necessary,
Install self adhesive tape ASNA5107 (Ref. process described below) at the locations of
all removed attachments,
Install the harness attachments, (Ref. procedure below).
Note: For correct attachment, the internal diameter of the attachment, to be installed must
be slightly smaller than the diameter of the harness with its adhesive tape.
Pull lightly on the harness to make sure that it is correctly attached.
D. ASNA5107 Self Adhesive Tape Installation Procedure.
(1) General Procedure
- Remove all cable ties or lacing tape at all securing locations over a length of 50 to 60
mm on each side of the attachment.
- Insert one end of a piece of self adhesive tape ASNA5107 through the harness to
separate the harness in 2 equal parts .
(Ref. Fig. 002)
The tape must come out of the harness by 10 to 20 mm.
- Pull firmly on the tape and wrap it around the harness.
NOTE: The first wrap and the last wrap must have a 100% overlap.
The other wraps must have a 50% overlap.
- Attach the two ends of the tape with cable ties NSA935401.
(Ref. Fig. 003)
- Install all the removed cable ties.
(2) Procedure for an over-length stowage loop
(Ref. Fig. 004)
03/05/2010 16
26. Advance copy ESPM 20-52-00
- Remove all cable ties or lacing tape on the over-length part of the
harness.
- Make a loop to stow the harness over-length.
- At the location where the loop touches the harness, insert one end
of the adhesive tape between the two parts of the harness.
- Install two cable ties NSA935401 at each side of the location of
the adhesive tape.
- Pull firmly on the tape and wrap it around the harness.
Note: The first wrap and the last wrap must have a 100% overlap.
The other wraps must have a 50% overlap.
- Attach the two ends of the tape with cable ties NSA935401.
(Ref. Fig. 004)
- Install all the removed cable ties.
3 . Clamps Sliding on Struts
A. General
This paragraph gives the procedure for the installation of harness attachment clamps or
large or tapered struts.
Always do this procedure when you find deterioration of the initial installation (loose
clamp, deterioration at the tape and/or grommet).
Note: This process is not applicable inside fuel tanks.
B. Procedure
(Ref. Fig. 005)
- Remove the clamp assembly (the strut clamp and the harness clamp) and the existing
tape from the strut.
- Remove the remaining traces of glue on the strut with cleaning agent (Material No.11-
008A, 11-026) or equivalent).
- Install self adhesive tape ASNA5107 on the strut.
Note: Pull firmly on the tape and wrap it around the strut.
- Attach the two ends of the tape with cable ties NSA935401-08 or equivalent.
- Install a strut clamp that has an internal diameter slightly smaller than the outer
diameter of the strut + tape.
- Install the harness clamp.
4 . Clamps at the end of Convoluted Conduits.
This chapter gives the correspondence between NSA935807 and NSA5516 clamps.
We recommend the installation of NSA5516 grommet clamps as an alternative to
NSA935805 metal clamps at the end of convoluted conduits. The grommet
prevents contact between the wires and the metal part of the clamp if the
conduit moves out of the clamp.
(Ref. Fig. 006)
CAUTION: YOU MUST USE THE TYPE OF NSA5516 CLAMP THAT IS
APPLICABLE FOR THE AREA

20-52-13 Cleaning Procedure
1 . General
This chapter gives the general instructions related to the contamination of electrical
components.
The contamination can be :
- natural: the contamination agent is an identified material used in the aircraft systems
(hydraulic fluid, oil, fuel, etc.),
- accidental: the contamination agent comes from an external source (cleaning agent,
etc.),
- the effect of ageing : the contamination agent is dust, lint or fluff.
2 . Procedure
A. In relation to the type of contamination :
- stop the contamination source.
- keep the area that has contamination to a minimum,
- estimate the damage in the contamined area,
- select the applicable cleaning procedure.
B. Type of Contamination
(1) Liquid contamination:
- stop the contamination source.
- make a sealed barrier, usually with cloth, to stop the liquid and prevent contamination
of the adjacent areas,
- remove the contamination with cloth or a vacuum cleaner for liquids.
(2) Dry Contamination : dus, lint, fluff, powder, and granular contamination
On wires and electrical items, dry contamination can :
- Prevent correct inspections,
- Cause fire propagation after a short-circuit or arcing.
Do these actions to clean the contaminated areas :
- make a sure that there are no draughts,
- remove the contamination with a vacuum cleaner.
C. General cleaning Principle
You must clean only the areas and items that have contamination.
In case of contamination with temporary corrosion protection (TCP) compounds:
We recommend protection of the wires from accidental contamination during application
of TCP. Dust and fluff can collect on the wire if the surface stays tacky.
However, if you accidentally apply TCP on wiring or EWIS, it is not necessary to remove
it as this material has ne effect on the integrity of the wire insulation.
If the presence of dust or fluff makes it necessary to clean the wires, you must be very
careful not to cause damage to the wires.
