MONITORING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The status of the electrical system can be monitored using the
following displays and alerts. The percent load being delivered
by the Left Alternator and the Right Alternator (ALT LOAD L
and ALT LOAD R) is displayed on the default Engine page of
the Engine Indication System (EIS). This page is normally
positioned along the left side of the MFD. Numerical values for
alternator loads (ALT LOAD L and ALT LOAD R) and bus volt-
ages (BUS VOLTS L and BUS VOLTS R) are available by
pressing the ENGINE softkey, then the SYSTEM softkey, on
the MFD to access the ENGINE SYSTEM page. In the event
the MFD is not operational, the engine default page will be
positioned along the left side of the PFD. The Engine System
page may also be selected on the PFD in a manner identical to
that used on the MFD.
Failure of the alternators/regulators and use of the Bus Tie
switches are annunciated by the G1000 Alerting System as
shown in the following table.
