MAINTENANCE OF INTERCONNECTING ELECTRICAL HARNESSES10-1. GENERAL. Electrical interconnection of controldevices and indicators is accomplished through wiringharnesses. Wires in the harnesses are bundled andsecured to prevent unnecessary movement and chafing,and to conserve space.10-2. REPLACEMENT. Replace the interconnecting,external power box, AC-DC control box or control cubicleharness if 30 percent of the wires in the assembly aredefective. Refer to FO 10-1 through 10-21.WARNINGSET MAINTENANCE LOCKOUT SWITCH TOLOCKOUT. DISCONNECT NEGATIVE CABLEFROM BATTERIES. REMOVE EXTERNALPOWER BY OPENING CB101 (120VRECEPTACLE BREAKER).a.Removal. Remove harness assembly asfollows:(1)Tag all wires, connectors, and terminalboards.(2)Disconnect harness connectors fromreceptacles by unscrewing connectors incounterclockwise direction.(3)Remove all clamps that secure theharness.b.Repair. Refer to Operator/Crew OrganizationalMaintenance manual for repair procedures.c.Replacement. Replace harness as follows:(1)Secure harness with clamps.(2)Make necessary connections.(3)Remove wire tags.Section II. MAINTENANCE OF PARALLEL CABLE ASSEMBLIES10-3. GENERAL. There are two parallel cable assemblies,a reactive load compensation cable and a governor circuitcable, used to interconnect sets for parallel operation.10-4. INSPECTION.a.Inspect connectors for damaged threads andbent, loose, or missing pins. Inspect wiring fordefective insulation.b.Perform continuity check, using ohmmeterbetween connecting points in the cable. Usewiring data in figure 10-1. Check for shortcircuits between connector pins of the same receptacle.10-5. REPAIR. If a wire is broken from a connector,resolder and reassemble.10-6. REPLACEMENT. To remove parallel cables,unscrew connectors from receptacles on generator set AC-DC control panel to replace parallel cables, unscrew dustcaps on AC-DC control panel receptacles, labeledGOVERNOR PARALLELING CIRCUIT and REACTIVELOAD COMPENSATION. Attach parallel cables to thesereceptacles at both generator set AC-DC control panels.10-1
