The
importance of recording any liquid spillage in the cabin
On 25 May 2016,
an aircraft experienced a major electrical system failure soon after
reaching its cruise altitude of FL 360. ATC were advised of problems and
a descent to enable the APU to be started was made. This action restored
most of the lost systems and the crew, not having declared an emergency,
elected to complete their planned 400nm flight. The Investigation found
that liquid contamination of an underfloor avionics bay had caused the
electrical failure which had also involved fire and smoke without crew
awareness because the smoke detection and air recirculation systems had
been unpowered.
