## Discrepancy

A FEW MINUTES AFTER TAKEOFF,  MASTER CAUTION LIGHT CAME ON DUE TO THE LOSS OF THE RT GENERATOR.  AT THE SAME TIME SEVERAL CIRCUIT BREAKERS TRIPPED RESULTING IN THE LOSS OF MOST OF THE RT SIDE OF THE COCKPIT.   AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING,  FOUND B TERMINAL WIRE TERMINAL HAD SHORTED AND CAUSED THE PROBLEM.   REPLACED THE TERMINAL, OPS CHECKED THE ENTIRE SYSTEM WITH NO DEFECTS NOTED AND RETURNED THE ACFT TO SERVICE.
