## Discrepancy

(CAN) WIRE BUNDLE SECURED INCORRECTLY LEADING TO CHAFING ON/THRU PNEUMATIC DEICE AIR SUPPLY LINES. DURING THE INITIAL COMPLETION OF THE DEICE SYSTEM TEST AND SERVICE IT WAS FOUND THAT THE WIRING BUNDLE FOR THE DEICE SOLENOIDS AND PRESSURE SWITCHES HAD BEEN SECURED IN A POSITION WHICH ALLOWED THEM TO CONTACT SUPPLY LINE P/N 261067-31, WEARING A HOLE IN THE LINE AND DAMAGING SEVERAL WIRES. DEICE PIPES P/N 2601067-31 AND -32 WERE REPLACED.  WIRING WAS REPAIRED, REROUTED AND PROTECTED TO PREVENT FURTHER CONTACT WITH DEICE PIPES.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE. OTHER AIRCRAFT IN THE FLEET WERE INSPECTED WITH NO FAULTS FOUND.    (TC NR 20061010003)
