Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by reports of damage to the auxiliary power unit (APU) fuel line shroud located aft of the aft cargo area; investigation revealed that the placement of the pressure switch wire clamp assembly and the fastener allowed interference of the fastener against the APU fuel line shroud. The FAA is issuing this AD to address interference of the fastener against the APU fuel line shroud, possibly resulting in a damaged APU fuel line shroud and consequent failure of the APU fuel hose, which could result in a flammable fluid leak in an ignition zone.

Affected ADs

None.
