I. Aircraft System Inspection and Maintenance
Electrical system detection: in the aircraft maintenance process, the electrical system needs to be comprehensively detected and maintained. Aviation ground power can provide stable power output, providing the necessary support for the inspection work of the electrical system.
Equipment energisation check: For various on-board equipment on the aircraft, such as radar, navigation, communication equipment, etc., it is necessary to carry out energisation check in the maintenance process. Aviation ground power can simulate the aircraft in the air when the power environment, for these equipment power check to provide power support.
II.aircraft parts replacement and testing
Component Replacement: When replacing aircraft components, such as engines, landing gear, etc., it is necessary to ensure that these components can work normally during the replacement process. Aviation ground power can provide the necessary electrical support for these components to ensure that they are adequately tested during the replacement process.
Component testing: Newly replaced or repaired components need to be functionally tested to ensure they perform as required. Aviation ground power can provide the required power to support the testing of these components.
III.aircraft maintenance tools and equipment power supply
Maintenance tools power supply: in the aircraft maintenance process, the need to use a variety of power tools, such as electric drills, electric spanners and so on. These tools need power support to work normally. Aviation ground power can provide stable power output for these maintenance tools to ensure the smooth progress of maintenance work.
Maintenance equipment power supply: In addition to maintenance tools, some maintenance equipment such as test instruments, testing equipment, etc. also need power support. Aviation ground power supply can also provide the necessary power supply for these equipments.
Disadvantages
Higher cost: As a specialised piece of equipment, aviation ground power is relatively expensive to manufacture and maintain. This can add to the overall cost burden of aircraft maintenance.
Complexity of operation: Some aviation ground power supplies may require certain professional knowledge and skills to operate and may be difficult for non-specialists to operate. This may increase training costs and operational risks.
Dependence on external power sources: Aviation ground power supplies are often dependent on an external power source (e.g., utility or generator) to provide electrical support. In the event of failure or interruption of the external power source, the normal use of aviation ground power may be affected. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the reliability and stability of the external power supply when using aviation ground power.
High maintenance requirements: In order to ensure the long-term stable operation and prolong the service life of aviation ground power supplies, regular maintenance and servicing is required. This may increase the maintenance cost and manpower investment.
