(Peter Pengilly) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 08:41:24 AM PST US From: Bob Verwey Subject: AeroElectric-List: Interav OV relay: how to do an integrity test. So I'm sitting with this interav OV regulator of unknown condition that I want to test. It has all white leads, but it's fairly easy to pick up what appears to be the coil at 3 ohms and the contacts on the other two wires. [image: image.png] Now since I don't really know how these devices work, I'm looking for advice on how to test effectively. Do these devices work/not work, or is there more to it?

From: "user9253" Are the wires shorted together that you suspect are the contacts? If not, maybe the 3 ohms are the contact wires. 3 ohms could be from corroded contacts. 3 ohms is too low for a coil. It would draw almost 5 amps and get very hot, 70 watts of heat. Assuming the contacts are normally closed, then: If one pair of wires is open, it means that either the contacts are not making contact or the coil is open. In either case, the relay is defective. -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=502620#502620 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 03:06:02 PM PST US From: "Peter Pengilly" Subject: RE: ****SPAM**** AeroElectric-List: Ameri-King AK-451 AF ELT? The FAA pulled Ameri-King's production authorisation a few years ago because of quality concerns so no more batteries. Is your battery still in date? The AD in question is AD 2017-16-01. https://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgad.nsf/AOCADSearch/5BA F0370C7871DEB862581A0004AFD68?OpenDocument. I guess the question is are you required by operational regulations to carry an ELT?

I'm ready to install it in my Experimental Europa. Is it still a valid ELT? I believe there may be some ADs if installed on Certified Aircraft. Will it affect me? What do I need to know? Should I replace it? Thx. Ron P.
