Applicability*9

Compliance

You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed within the compliance times specified, unless the actions have already been done.

Required actions

This paragraph restates the modification required by paragraph (a) of AD 2004-15-16, Amendment 39-13750 (69 FR 45578, July 30, 2004), with revised service information. For all airplanes except airplanes on which Airbus Service Bulletin A310-28-2148, Revision 02, dated March 9, 2007, has been done (Airbus Modifications 12427 and 12435): Within 4,000 flight hours after September 3, 2004 (the effective date of AD 2004-15-16), modify the routing of wires in the right hand (RH) wing by installing cable sleeves, per the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A310-28-2148, Revision 01, dated October 29, 2002; Airbus Service Bulletin A310-28-2148, Revision 02, dated March 9, 2007; Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310-28-2148, Revision 05, dated August 3, 2010; or Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310-28-2148, Revision 06, dated August 31, 2011. As of February 20, 2008 (the effective date of AD 2008-01-05, Amendment 39-15330 (73 FR 2795, January 16, 2008)), Airbus Service Bulletin A310-28-2148, Revision 02, dated March 9, 2007; Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310-28-2148, Revision 05, dated August 3, 2010; or Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310-28-2148, Revision 06, dated August 31, 2011; must be used. As of the effective date of this AD, Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310-28-2148, Revision 05, dated August 3, 2010; or Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310-28-2148, Revision 06, dated August 31, 2011; must be used.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by analyses of the wire routing showing that the route of the fuel electrical circuit in the right-hand wing must be modified in order to ensure better segregation between fuel quantity indication wires and the 115-volt alternating current wires. We are issuing this AD to prevent short circuits leading to arcing, and possible fuel tank explosion.

Affected ADs

This AD supersedes AD 2008-01-05, Amendment 39-15330 (73 FR 2795, January 16, 2008).
