Course detail: Introduction to Fuel Tank Safety and Ignition Prevention: SAE ARP6205
This course provides details on all elements of fuel tank design needed for compliance with the related regulations, with specific emphasis on electrical design aspects. Some review of regulatory history of 25.954 and 25.981 up to Amendment 25.146 is included for reference for TC, ATC, and STC activities, while the main emphasis of this course will explore the guidance material for fuel tank safety compliance provided within the FAA advisory circulars and SAE ARP6205 document. This course will also include a high-level overview of electromagnetic effects (EME), lightning effects (direct and indirect), high intensity radiated fields (HIRF), precipitation static (P-static), electrical bonding and grounding requirements, and requirements for electrical wiring interconnection system (EWIS), as they pertain to the affected fuel tank safety regulations, advisory circulars, and SAE ARP6205.
Highlights
Who Should Attend?
This course is specifically meant for those who are interested in the latest aerospace recommended practice SAE ARP6205 and its relation to fuel tank safety. This course is also designed for all design engineering disciplines, project managers, project engineers, and laboratory personnel whose aircraft system may require protection of the airplane's fuel system from potentially catastrophic conditions, including ignition and explosion.
