| Reporting LRU: | AC Power Center (ACPC) |
| System Description: | 24-50-00 |
| Schematic Diagram: | 24-51-00 [ Global Express ] [ G5000 ] [ Global XRS ] |

Fault Description:
The AC-to-DC Converter Card monitors fuses and diodes status on Electronic Module (EM) 2.
- Voltage status on the output terminal for each fuse will be verified against related power input voltage in order to determine if any fuse is open. If any open fuse is found, the test for that Electronic Module will fail.
- Voltage status on the anode for each Diode will be compared against power input voltage. If an anode voltage is detected while no voltage is present at the associated power input, this will indicate a Diode short circuit fault and a fuse open fault. The test of that Electronic Module will fail.
- The voltage status of Diode coil power will be compared against anode voltage on each Diode to determine if any Diode has failed open. This test will be limited to Diodes associated with power inputs.
Possible Causes:
- Electronic Module (EM2)
- AC-to-DC Converter Card
- Right Microprocessor Card
- AC Power Center (ACPC) (A54)
- Associated Wiring
