What was found
(CAN) DURING MASTER SWITCH SELECTION TO ON, NO POWER WAS OBSERVED ANYWHERE IN ACFT. TROUBLESHOT A FEW TIMES, EVERY TIME, WHEN MX TRIED TO DUPLICATE SNAG, UNABLE TO FAULT. FINALLY, WAS ABLE TO FAULT, FOUND THAT BUSS (BUS) TIE STRAP FROM ALTERNATOR CONTACTOR (SOLENOID) TO THE TOP START OF BOTH CIRCUIT BREAKERS WERE PRE-LOADED TO APPLY A PRESSURE TO PULL THE STUDS AWAY FROM THE BREAKERS. THIS ALLOWED THE CIRCUIT BREAKERS TO SEPARATE AT THE DESIGNED SPLIT IN THE BREAKER WHICH STOPPED THE BREAKER FROM FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AND THUS NOT ALLOWING CURRENT TO FLOW THROUGH THE BREAKER TO THE ACFT BUSES.
