TM 55-1510-219-10(a)External AC power annunciatorlight. An annunciator light placarded EXT AC PWR ON,located on the mission annunciator panel indicates thatan AC GPU plug is mated to the AC external powerreceptacle and the External AC Power control switch isOn.(b)External AC power control switch.A switch placarded AC EXT POWER, located on themission control panel controls application of three phaseAC power to the aircraft.Section X. LIGHTING2-74. EXTERIOR LIGHTING.a.Description. Exterior lighting (fig. 2-27)consists of a navigation light on top of the aft section ofthe vertical stabilizer, one navigation light on top andbottom of each wing tip pod, two strobe beacons, one ontop of the vertical stabilizer and one on the underside ofthe fuselage center section, dual landing lights, one taxilight mounted on the nose gear assembly, a recognitionlight located in each wing tip, and two ice lights, onelight flush mounted in each nacelle, positioned toilluminate along the leading edge of each outboard wing.b.Navigation Lights. The navigation lights areprotected by a 5-ampere circuit breaker placarded NAVon the overhead circuit breaker panel (fig. 2-26).Control of the lights is provided by a switch placardedNAV-ON on the overhead control panel (fig. 2-18).c.Strobe Beacons. The strobe beacons are dualintensity units. They are protected by a 15amperecircuit breaker placarded BCN on the overhead circuitbreaker panel (fig. 2-26). Control of the lights isprovided by a switch placarded BEACONDAY-NIGHT(fig. 2-18). Placing the switch in the DAY position willactivate the high intensity white section of the strobelights for greater visibility during daytime operation.Placing the switch in the NIGHT position activates thelower intensity red section of the strobe lights.d.Landing/Taxi Lights.Dual landing lights and asingle taxi light are mounted on the nose gear assembly.The lights are controlled by switches, placardedLANDING and TAXI, located in the LIGHTS section ofthe pilot's subpanel. In addition, these light areextinguished whenever the landing gear is retracted.The landing/taxi lights circuits are protected by 5-ampere circuit breakers placarded LANDING and TAXIrespectively, located on the overhead circuit breakerpanel (fig. 2-26). Additional circuit protection isprovided by 35-ampere and 15ampere circuit breakerson the DC power distribution panel located beneath thecockpit floor.e.Ice Lights. The ice lights circuit is protected bya 5-ampere circuit breaker placarded ICE on theoverhead circuit breaker panel (fig. 2-26). Control ofthe lights is provided by a switch placarded ICE on theoverhead control panel (fig. 2-18). Prolonged useduring ground operation may generate enough heat todamage the lens.f.Recognition Lights. A RECOG switch, locatedin the pilot's subpanel LIGHTS section, controls a whiterecognition light in each wing tip. When requested, thissteady, bright light is used for identification in the trafficpattern. The recognition lights circuit is protected by a 71/2 ampere RECOG circuit breaker located on theoverhead circuit breaker panel (fig. 2-26).2-75. INTERIOR LIGHTING.Lighting systems are installed for use by the pilotand copilot and by the passengers in the cabin area.The lighting systems in the cockpit are provided withintensity controls on the overhead control panel. Aswitch placarded MASTER PANEL LIGHTS on theoverhead control panel (fig. 2-18) provides overall on-off control for all engine instrument lights, pilot andcopilot instrument lights, overhead panel lights, consoleand subpanel lights and the free air temperature light.a.Cockpit Lighting.(1)Flight instrument lights. Each individualflight instrument contains internal lamps for illumination.The circuit is protected by a 7 1/2-ampere circuitbreaker placarded FLT INST on the overhead circuitoverhead circuit breaker panel (fig. 226). Control isprovided by two rheostat switches placarded PILOT orCOPILOT INST LIGHTS-OFF-BRT on the overheadcontrol panel (fig. 2-18). Turning the control clockwisefrom OFF turns the lights on and increases theirbrilliance.(2)Instrument indirect lights. Three lights aremounted in the glareshield overhang along the top edgeof the instrument panel and provide overall instrumentpanel illumination. The circuit is protected by a 5-ampere circuit breaker placarded INST INDIRECT onthe overhead circuit breaker panel (fig. 2-26). Controlis provided by a rheostat switch placarded INSTINDIRECT LIGHTS-OFF-BRT on the overhead controlpanel (fig. 2-18). Turning the2-67
