Some vehicles have external starter motor controls and power supply connections operated by a separate crew member while some vehicles are able to be started by the driver from within the cockpit. Operation of the external starting devices shall be performed by suitably trained crew/ personnel.

Only the persons operating the engine starter are to be beside the vehicle, perpendicular to the axis of the turbine or behind the vehicle during starting and running.

Only starting personnel and/or Crew Chief is to be near the vehicle during starting and run-up operations.

2. For equipment with more than 300 Volts to earth, the insulation resistance must reach or exceed 500 k Ohms.

The measurement of the insulation resistance must be carried out using a DC voltage of at least 100 Volts.

Recharging; Recharging must only take place in the vehicle’s pit area. The charging system must be separate from the vehicle and comply with all applicable electrical standards and requirements including a thermal overload trip and fusing and be equipped with an earth leakage protection breaker/ ground fault circuit interrupter.
