To finish of my set of flows for my own personal use, i just need some help on why it mentions connect/start GROUND POWER and APU during the Preliminary Pre-Flight as this should already be established on the Supplementary Procedures - Electrical Power Up.
Below is just the initial part of an old FCOM from 2007 but i've only included whats necessary.
Perform the following checks prior to assuming normal crew positions.
Maintenance status ............................................................ ............. Check
Verify maintenance status is acceptable for flight and ensure agreement with authorized dispatch deviations if required.
Flight deck access system switch ..................................................... OFF
Note: Refer to Supplementary Procedures, for a system test, as required.
BATTERY switch ............................................................ .................ON
Guard – Down
ELECTRIC HYDRAULIC PUMP switches .................................... OFF
LANDING GEAR lever ............................................................ .........DN
Six green landing gear indicator lights – Illuminated
Ship’s library ............................................................ ...................Checked
GROUND POWER switch (if ground power is available) ................ON
SOURCE OFF lights – Extinguished
Fault/Inop detection ............................................................ ........... Check
OVERHEAT DETECTOR switches – NORMAL TEST switch – Hold to FAULT/INOP
Verify MASTER CAUTION, OVHT/DET annunciator, FAULT and APU DET INOP lights are illuminated.
If the FAULT light fails to illuminate, the fault monitoring system is inoperative.
If APU DET INOP light fails to illuminate, do not operate APU.
Fire/Overheat warning ............................................................ .......Check
Note: Alert ground personnel before this test is accomplished with the APU operating. The fire warning light flashes and the horn sounds on the APU ground control panel.
TEST switch – Hold to OVHT/FIRE
Verify fire warning bell sounds, master FIRE WARN lights, MASTER CAUTION lights and OVHT/DET annunciator illuminate.
Master FIRE WARNING light – Push
Verify master FIRE WARN lights and fire warning bell cancel.
Verify engine No. 1, APU, and engine No. 2 fire warning switch and engine No. 1 and engine No. 2 OVERHEAT lights are illuminated. If AC busses are powered, verify WHEEL WELL fire warning light is illuminated.
If an engine fire warning switch and an ENG OVERHEAT light do not illuminate, a detection loop is inoperative.
EXTINGUISHER TEST switch ....................................................Check
Position TEST Switch to 1, verify the green extinguisher test lights are illuminated. Release switch and verify the lights are extinguished. Repeat for test position 2.
APU ............................................................ .................. Start & on busses
Note: Toconservefuelandreduceemissions,starttheAPUwhen the loadsheet arrives at the airplane.
When the APU GEN OFF BUS light illuminates: APU GENERATOR bus switches – ON SOURCE OFF lights – Extinguished
Note: It is recommended that the APU be operated for one minute before using as a bleed air source.
CAUTION: Do not operate the center tank fuel pumps with the flight deck unattended.
EMERGENCY EXIT lights switch ...........................................ARMED
