AIRCRAFT HAVING AN AVIONICS SYSTEM

摘要

An aircraft having an avionics system comprising a plurality of avionics equipment and a system of connections, the avionics equipment incorporating protection means for providing protection against indirect effects of lightning, the system of connections including wired connections and connectors between the wired connections. The avionics system has at least one avionics equipment with protection means that are insufficient for providing total protection against the indirect effects of lightning when the equipment is incorporated in the structure, which equipment is connected to at least one connector including a resistor connected in series relative to at least one wired connection secured to the resistive connector.

1. An aircraft having a structure and an avionics system, the avionics system comprising a plurality of avionics equipment and a system of connections between the avionics equipment, the avionics equipment transmitting and receiving input and output signals, and for each input and output signal including protection means for providing protection against indirect effects of lightning, the system of connections including wired connections and connectors between the wired connections, wherein the avionics system includes at least one avionics equipment referred to as “insufficiently protected equipment”, the insufficiently protected equipment having protection means including at least one semiconductor member that is insufficient for ensuring that the insufficiently protected equipment is completely protected against the indirect effects of lightning given a predetermined specification relating the integration of this insufficiently protected equipment in the structure, each insufficiently protected equipment being connected to at least one connector referred to as a “resistive” connector that includes a resistor arranged in series with at least one wired connection secured to the resistive connector.
