    KA 310 Location and Mounting The KA 310 does not require forced cooling. The unit must be mounted to a metal surface per the drawing listed in the STC Approved Model List (P/N 89800004-098) to allow proper heat dissipation and electrical bonding of the unit.
  • Page 32: Cable And Wiring

    4.5.1 Aircraft with Existing ELA If the aircraft has an existing ELA, update the ELA to reflect the addition of the KA 310 LRU. The updated ELA must show the alternator(s)/generator(s) have adequate capacity to supply power to the modified systems in all anticipated conditions.
  • Page 33: Aircraft Without Existing Ela

    Verify the electrical load including the KA 310 does not exceed 80% or maximum load published in the AFM/AMM of the rated capacity of the installed generator(s)/alternator(s). If the additional load of the KA 310 exceeds the rated capacity, alternate FAA approval is required for the installation of the KA 310 in the aircraft.
