Britax Sell Gmbh & Co. OHG Water Boilers, Coffee Makers, and Beverage Makers
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2002-21-01. Comply with the one in force.
This airworthiness directive (AD) is applicable to certain Britax Sell Gmbh & Co. OHG water boilers, coffee makers, and beverage makers, listed by part number (P/N) and serial number (SN) in Table 1 of this AD. These products are installed on but not limited to Airbus Industrie A319, A320, A330, AVRO RJ, Boeing Company 717, 737, 747, 757, 767, 777, and Bombardier RJ airplanes.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Britax Sell Gmbh & Co. OHG water boilers, coffee makers, and beverage makers. This action requires inspecting the wiring for indications of overheating or electrical arcing, and if indications are found, replacing the wiring. This amendment is prompted by reports of discolored and partially melted wires. The actions specified in this amendment are intended to prevent a fire in the galley compartment due to inadequate crimping of the electrical terminal contact pins, which could result in smoke in the cockpit and cabin and loss of control of the airplane.
The aircraft, engines and makers this AD names, by the model designations in its text. A model listed here may still be outside the AD's serial ranges.
