Part B — Standards for an integrated TABS device

      1 An integrated TABS device must meet the technical specifications in (E)TSO‑C199, as in force from time to time, that are for a device with integrated Class A TABS and Class B TABS functionality.

      2 An integrated TABS device must transmit a SIL value of 1.

      3 Subject to clause 4, an integrated TABS device must be authorised by the relevant NAA of the equipment manufacturer as meeting the standards mentioned in clauses 1 and 2.

      4 Clause 3 does not apply to an integrated TABS device carried on certain light sport, experimental and other aircraft provided that the TABS device that is carried:
(a) provides the pilot, other aircraft and ATC with the same transponder and surveillance capability as would be provided if an integrated TABS device were expressly authorised by the relevant NAA; and
(b) the pilot has a statement of compliance (or however described) from the equipment manufacturer certifying that the equipment otherwise meets the standards mentioned in clauses 1 and 2.
Appendix XIV — Approved equipment configuration — EC device — VFR flight below FL290 only

Part A — ADS-B transmitting equipment — approval and application

      Approved equipment configuration — EC device

      1 Subject to this Part, an equipment configuration for ADS‑B transmitting equipment is approved if it is an electronic conspicuity device (an EC device) that complies with the standards specified in Part B of this Appendix.
Note   Only EC devices that meet all of the requirements of this Appendix are EC devices for the purposes of this Appendix.

      Application

      2 An EC device carried on an aircraft has an approved equipment configuration if it complies with:
(a) the standards in Part B of this Appendix; and
(b) the conditions set out in clause 3.
Note   Another Appendix may apply to the equipment in a VFR flight.

      3 For paragraph 2 (b), an EC device must not be operated in transmitting mode:
(a) in VFR flight at or above FL290; or
(b) concurrently with a Mode S transponder that is also transmitting ADS‑B.
Note   An EC device may be operated concurrently with a Mode A/C, or a Mode S transponder (other than one that is transmitting ADS-B) but it is not a substitute for mandatory carriage of a transponder in relevant airspace.

Part B — Standards for an EC device

      1 Subject to clauses 3 and 4, an EC device must meet the technical specifications in UK CAP 1391.

      2 An EC device must use a Class B TABS position source that complies with the performance standards specified in (E)TSO-C199,
