Something the bothers me is that I have come across several cases of people resetting tripped fuel pump circuit breakers, in one case by flight crew while airborne and in two others by maintenance engineers while troubleshooting. On Boeings, the information that flight crew may not reset a tripped fuel pump circuit breaker is published in the Airplane Flight Manual. The mandatory information that "A tripped fuel pump circuit breaker may not be reset until the fault that caused it to open has been positively identifed and rectified" is contained in an AWL (Airworthiness Limitation) in Section 9 of the Maintenance Planning Document. Airbus publish the data in a similar manner.
Now, how many Line Engineers are familiar with the content of the MPD or even their company's AMP? And how many pilots read the AFM, as opposed to the Operations Manual?
Given that this seems to be a common occurence, should this information not be more widely available? Like, on a placard next to the CBs for instance?
