AD: Boeing

AD NUMBER: 2010-17-05

MANUFACTURER: The Boeing Company Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, and -900 Series Airplanes
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2010-17-05

SUMMARY: This AD requires replacement of the power control relays in the P91 and P92 power distribution panels for the fuel boost and override pumps with new, improved relays having a ground fault interrupter (GFI) feature, or installation and maintenance of universal fault interrupters (UFIs) using a certain supplemental type certificate. This AD results from fuel system reviews conducted by the manufacturer.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent pump housing burn-through due to electrical arcing, which could create a potential ignition source inside a fuel tank. This condition, in combination with flammable fuel vapors, could result in a fuel tank explosion and consequent loss of the airplane.
