             The original issue of this Directive was issued to detect and correct chafing of the fuel boost pump electrical wiring, prevent leakage of fuel into the conduit and to prevent electrical arcing between the wiring and the surrounding conduit, which could result in arc-through of the conduit together with consequent fire or explosion of the fuel tank.
             Amendment 1 resulted from the FAA correcting a typographical error in AD
             2007-11-07.  The repetitive inspection interval is now expressed in hours TIS rather than flight cycles and the requirement for retrospective submittal of inspection reports have been deleted as the compliance time has passed.  All other aspects remained unchanged.
             This Amendment follows a superseding AD being issued by the FAA.  It reduces the inspection threshold for certain aeroplanes and to avoid confusion, bases the threshold on the completion of service bulletin inspections rather than Airworthiness Directives.
             The original issue of this Directive became effective on 5 July 2007.
             Amendment 1 of this Directive became effective on 31 August 2007.
