Electrical Equipment
| AD/ELECT/26 | Nickel Cadmium Batteries - Double D Washers - Inspection and Removal | 2/2009 |
Requirement: | CANCELLED. |
| This AD is cancelled on 12 February 2009. | |
Background: | This unique Australian AD raised in 1973 required Sonotone or Marathon type CA-9 and MA-9 Nickel Cadmium Batteries to be inspected and modified to prevent the possibility of a short circuit resulting in fire or explosion due to the socket head cap screws cutting through the lid gasket. Compliance was before commencing the next deep cycle check after As all affected batteries would have been inspected and/or modified by now, this AD is considered to be no longer required. |
