Following several aircraft accidents and in-flight smoke and fire events, Aviation Accident Investigators have highlighted the urgent need for enhanced training to ensure proper identification and repair of unsafe wiring conditions. In response, both the FAA and EASA have adopted the training requirements developed by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB).
EWIS (Electrical Wire Interconnection Systems) initial and continuation training is now a mandatory requirement to comply with FAA Sections 121.375 and 129.14 of 14CFR, as well as EASA paragraphs 21.A.145 and 21.A.245 of Part-21, 145.A.30 and 145.A.35 of Part-145, and M.A.706 of Part-M.
The EWIS training includes the following essential modules:
- General electrical wiring interconnection systems practices
- Wiring practices documentation
- Inspection procedures
- Housekeeping protocols
- Wire management
- Connective devices
- Connective device repair
- Flammability reduction techniques
