                This Airworthiness Directive becomes effective on 30 August 2007.
Background:     The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has been advised by the aircraft manufacturer of reports of chafing between an electrical feeder bundle and a bus bar under the circuit breaker panel.  This chaffing could lead to loss of electrical power to some systems and may result smoke and/or fire.

                This Directive requires an inspection of the electrical feeder bundle, repair if necessary and modification of its routing under the circuit breaker panel through implementation of modification M3093.
