I would like to thank M2Dude and wish him and his team a speedy return to his Concorde, and every success with this project.
You will have to forgive me as I am simply wishing to suggest a possible cause to the problem. Following my investigations into a tripping Circuit Breaker /Concorde.
When C/B's trip once it tells you don't push me in again.
Carry out wiring checks on this system. What we call Continuity and Meggar checks. A meggar meter will tell you if the wiring insulation is damaged and could be wires are shorting together or contacting the metal structure of the aircraft. The continuity check is carried out using an Avometer. This checks the overall condition of each single wire of the wiring loom in general. Each wire is checked individually using this meter.
But this is the process before re installing or replacing any unit regarding tripping circuit breakers.
Is it possible that the unit could have been damaged by resetting the C/B more than once?
Once again thank you M2Dude, and every success to you.
