Important Notice, Disclaimer & Limitation of Liability
Please read before relying on any content on this page.
Specific to this page: Series-circuit airfield ground lighting equipment can carry lethal voltages. Never work on a series circuit, CCR, transformer, cable, connector or fixture that has not been isolated, locked out, proved dead and discharged under the aerodrome’s permit-to-work and LOTO procedures. Insulation-resistance and other test voltages are themselves hazardous. Descriptions, values, tolerances, maintenance tasks and test methods on this page are general and indicative, not a procedure, specification or acceptance criterion; the approved design, the manufacturer’s instructions and the competent regulator prevail.
- Purpose and intended users. This page is an independent educational and informational reference for airport owners, engineers, contractors, consultants and other competent professionals. It is not professional engineering, legal, regulatory or financial advice, and using it creates no professional or client relationship.
- Safety. Work on series circuits, constant current regulators (CCRs), isolating transformers, cables, connectors and lighting equipment can be fatal. Always apply the aerodrome’s permit-to-work and isolation/LOTO procedures, prove dead, use correctly rated instruments and PPE, and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Nothing here authorises work on live equipment or the bypassing of any safety device.
- Aviation operations and regulation. Nothing here authorises installation, modification, energisation, return to service, a change of operating category (CAT I/II/III), a NOTAM, or any aerodrome licensing, certification or approval decision. These rest with the aerodrome operator, the air navigation service provider and the competent regulator, such as the DGCA and AAI.
- Standards, regulations and public information. References to ICAO Annex 14, FAA advisory circulars, IEC, IEEE, ISO, BIS (IS) standards, DGCA requirements, AAI documents, tenders, AIP material and government publications are paraphrased summaries for orientation. They may be incomplete, may have changed, and are not official text. Check the current official documents. Following this content does not guarantee compliance with any law, standard or approval, and the regulator’s requirements and your contract specification always prevail.
- Commercial interest; no offer. This page is published by Precision AGL Solutions, which provides some of the products and services described, so it is not an independent buyer’s guide. Descriptions of supply, consultancy, installation, photometry, maintenance, training or other support are not an offer, quotation, tender or promise of any result. Contacting us or our replying creates no engagement, duty of care or contract; an engagement exists only under a written agreement. We are not a regulator or certification body, and “compliance support” does not mean certification or approval.
- Third-party companies, tenders and sources. Where this site refers to other companies, authorities, tenders or publications, it describes what they state publicly or what public documents say, as understood when the page was prepared. We have not independently verified those statements, and they may have changed. They are not a ranking, rating, comparison, endorsement or statement about the quality, capability, authorisation or standing of any person. No company, product or organisation is disparaged. If you are named and want a correction, update or removal, write to precisionaglsolutions@gmail.com with the page address and we will review it promptly.
