B1 Airworthiness
Airworthiness approval of the JA74-510 may require completion of a TCCA Major Modification Report per CAR
STD (AWM) 571 Appendix L, or a FAA Form 337. The sample wording for a description of the work is provided to
assist the Installing Agency in preparing Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA) when installing a Jupiter
Avionics JA74-510 Dual USB-C Charger. This sample may be modified appropriately for new installations. It is the
installer’s responsibility to determine the applicability of the method used. Installations performed outside Canada
must follow the applicable aviation authority’s regulations.
Sample Wording:
Installed the Jupiter Avionics JA74-510 Dual USB-C Charger [aircraft location].
Installed in accordance with the JA74-510 Installation Manual, Revision [ ], and AC 43.13-2, Chapters 2, and 3.
The JA74-510 Installation Manual provides detailed installation instructions and wiring diagrams (Section 2, and
Appendices A and B).
Power is supplied to the JA74-510 through a 4-Amp circuit breaker.
Aircraft equipment list, weights and balance amended. Compass compensation checked and found to conform to
applicable regulations.
B2 Instructions for Continued Airworthiness
Maintenance of the JA74-510 Dual USB-C Charger is “on condition” only. Periodic maintenance of the JA74-510
is not required.
The following sample Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA) provides assistance in preparing ICA for the
Jupiter Avionics JA74-510 unit installation as part of a Type Certificate (TC) or Supplemental Type Certificate
(STC) project to comply with CAR STD (AWM) 523/527/525/529.1529 or FAR 23/25/27/29.1529 “Instructions for
Continued Airworthiness”.
Items that may vary by aircraft make and model are shown in brackets (“[ ]”) and should be filled in as
appropriate. Some of the checklist items do not apply, in which case they should be marked “N/A” (Not
Applicable).
