1. General
The Electrical Standard Practices Manual (ESPM) gives descriptive data and procedures for the electrical
installations on all aircraft of the AIRBUS family.
The standard practices information in this manual tells you how to do maintenance and repairs on the standard
electrical items and thus ensure the continued airworthiness of the aircraft.
NOTE: For the obsolescence/interchangeability status of the tools, refer to the Tool Equipment Manual. (TEM)
NOTE: The Electrical Standard Practices data related to Power Plant is shown in the AMM 70-71-XX.
NOTE: There are several Chapter 20, depending on the vendor responsible for the system (ECE, Honeywell,
etc.) but whatever the vendor, their chapter 20 follows the same layout.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Or by the "Request for Information/Revision" form.
3. Definitions
A. Definition of Terms
The terms below are used in the ESPM and are defined as follows:
- Standard Practices: Standard industry practices that are not specific to AIRBUS aircraft. Procedures
specific to AIRBUS aircraft and applicable to several systems.
- Torque: Term used when a procedure requires a specific torque value.
- Tighten: Term used when no specific torque value is required.
- WARNING: Calls attention to use of materials, processes, methods, procedures or limits that you
must obey precisely to prevent injury or death to persons.
- CAUTION: Calls attention to methods and procedures that you must obey to prevent damage to
equipment.
- NOTE: Calls attention to methods which make the job easier or give supplementary or explanatory
information.
B. Part Number (P/N) Construction
It is only with a P/N (not with a FIN) that you can access to the ESPM information.
The P/Ns listed in the ESPM are made up of two parts:
- A basic element which is the standard number/family.
- A suffix which defines the item.
e.g. Basic element (standard) + suffix(item) = Full P/N
NSA936504 TC0607 NSA936504TC0607
ASNE0261 CF24 E0261CF24
NOTE: For ASNE standards, the 3 letters "A, S, N" are omitted in the P/N.
For clarity, only the suffix (item) (e.g. E0617 for ASNE0617) is shown in the tables.
However, you can identify the full P/N because the applicable standard number is always shown
on the page. (In the title or/and on top of the table)
NOTE: For tool military part number (MIL), the P/N consists of the letter M and of the basic specification
number.
1 USquart = 0.9464 l
1 lbf.in = 0.0113 m.daN
1 lbf.ft = 0.1356 m.daN
1 ft = 0.3048 m
1 in = 25.4 mm
1 in3 = 16.3871 cm3
1 in.Hg = 0.491 psi
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Temperature conversion from degrees Fahrenheit (deg.F) to degrees Celsius (deg.C):
deg.C = 0.5555 x (deg.F - 32)

6. Effectivity
The effectivity of a page is given in the effectivity (Selected effectivity) statement in the top right hand corner of
the page.
For the ESPM, this effectivity is always 'ALL' because ESPM is a generic manual.Thus, the effectivity
statement of each page is ALL.
7. Revision Service
A. General
The revision service is on a six-month basis.
You can acces to ESPM data in the digital format products that follow:
- AirNav/Maintenace (DVD)
- AirNav/Associated data (DVD)
- SGML The Temporary Revision (TR) service to the ESPM is issued as necessary to alert the
customer on a major technical data change and give temporary instructions before the next regular
revision. Each temporary revision will be usually incorporated into the ESPM in the next regular
revision.
B. Filing Instructions
There are no filing instructions with AirNav because the manual is not page- oriented.
- Highlights (HL) are shown at the front of ESPM (and not at chapter level), and give a list of chapters or
illustrations which have been modified at the revision.
C. Revision Indication
In the current revision of ESPM, the revision changes are identified by a yellow background on the screen
to highlight the changes between two revisions.
D. Temporary Revisions (TR)
For AirNav/Maintenance or AirNav Associated Data, the revisions are given in digital format via Airbus
world and in CD format. You must load these TRs as soon as you received them.
At each revision, all TR(s) is (are) incorporated in the ESPM, there is no more persistent TR(s) between
two revisions. However, in case of non incorporation, new TR(s) superseding the previous one(s) will be
sent.
8. Interfaces with other manuals:
- The Standards Manual (SM) and the Illustrated Parts Catalog (IPC): These manuals help the user find
characteristics and complementary information (Supplier, equivalent P/N) for the required P/N.
- The Additional Cross Reference Tables (ACRT): The purpose of this manual which supplements the
IPC is to: - Give the list of Optional PNs (Part number) and Vendors. - Facilitate cross-reference of
data contained in the IPC and the other A/C manufacturer manuals such as the WDM and AMM. - List
raw materials required for local manufacture of items. - Give identification for lamps and fuses. - Give
information related to the interchangeability condition of the PNs. (ICD: Interchangeability Condition
Document)
- The Process and Material Specification (PMS): This manual helps the user prepare shop processes.

- The Trouble Shooting Manual (TSM) This manual gives information required for trouble shooting.
NOTE: When the customer adds an item on the aircraft, he will give it a number from 9000 to 9999.
Example: Repair of the cables.
- A FIN in the 9XXXVS series will identify the splice. (For example 9001VS for the first splice that
the customer installs on the aircraft)
- The customer will install a sleeve on each side of the splice with the 9XXXVS series number prin-
ted on it, in accordance with the splice FIN.
- The customer will raise a Customer Originated Change (COC) to include the identified VS in the
WDM. (AWM/ASM/AWL)
9. How To Use:
This part of the ESPM gives the user basic information on how to use the manual efficiently.
A. Manual Structure
(1) Preliminary pages at the beginning of the ESPM
(a) Record of Revisions
This record gives the ESPM revision numbers and issue dates and is updated by the operator.
(b) Highlights (HL)
The Highlights give the reason for revision changes.
(c) List of Temporary Revisions
This is the list of the temporary revisions (related to all chapters) which must be removed from
the manual or which still stay effective.
(2) Preliminary pages at the beginning of each chapter
(a) Table of Contents (TOC)
Each chapter in the ESPM begins with a Table of Contents. The Table of Contents shows each
section in the chapter and the subject material within the section.
(b) Record of Temporary Revision (ROTR)
The ROTR is not available on DVD and is superseded by the TR list paragraph, located in the
Manual Front Matter
(3) Manual Breakdown
Chapter breakdown is based on a 6-digit numbering system.
Each chapter (XX) is broken down into sections (XX-Y).
Each section (XX-Y) is broken down into subsections (XX-YY).
Each subsection (XX-YY) is broken down into subjects and sub-subjects (XX-YY-NZ).
B. How to get access to the information?
The entry points below help you find the information you need:
(1) The Table of Contents (TOC)
This part gives a list of the topics contained in the chapter and the title of a subject covered in each
topic.
(2) The alphabetical index (CHAPTER 00 - INDEXES)
This part gives an alphabetical list of keywords and tells you which topics contain these keywords.
NOTE: The ESPM does not cover all the electrical P/Ns, e.g.: old generation P/Ns that are no longer
used for repair and P/Ns that are not frequently used, are not covered.
For P/Ns not covered in the ESPM, you can refer to the Standards Manual (SM) which gives
the specification of the standard P/N or an equivalent P/N you can use. You can then refer
back to the ESPM for information related to that equivalent P/N given in the SM.

The search for connectors generally comes from the need to repair, replace or install a connector.
Therefore, at least the FIN is known and you can retrieve the related P/N with the help of the IPC or
AWL.
This chapter helps the user define the characteristics of the required connector, its contacts and the
related connection procedure.
(a) In Aircraft On Ground (AOG) situation
If a spare connector is not available, it can be possible to temporarily use the unused cavities of
the damaged connector if AIRBUS agrees.
You must contact AIRBUS to get a written agreement to use the unused cavities.
AIRBUS will make an analysis of:
- Compliance with the applicable electrical segregation rules.
- The condition of the connector and type of damage.
- The general environnement of the connector.
- The status of the unused cavities of the specific aircraft. (There is no EO or STC that
uses these cavities) If you think that the damage can have an effect on the integrity of the
connector, you must not use the unused cavities. This modification of the connector writing
must have the agreement of AIRBUS and can only be temporary. AIRBUS will specify the
limitation time for each change.
