## Discrepancy

(CAN) ARRIVED WITH A `FLTCTRL FAULT` CAS MESSAGE. THE FAULT WAS `THE SECONDARY POWER OF REU UNIT 5 IS DISCONNECTED OR FAILED` AFTER A LENGHTY INVESTIGATION FOUND WIRE C60BA22 DAMAGED FROM CONTACT WITH THE AFT MAIN SHIP BATTERY. THIS WIRE RUNS FROM PIN 77 AT CONNECTOR J2233 TO PIN C2 ON RELAY C-K213 (FBW BACKUP BAT AUX 1 RLY). SEVERAL OTHER WIRES SHOWED CHAFING ON THE INSULATION. C60BA22 WAS REPAIRED AND ASSOCIATED WIRES RE PROTECTED. WIRE BUNDLE WAS RE POSITIONED TO AVOID FUTURE CONTACT. LEGACY FLEET WILL BE INSPECTED FOR THIS CONDITION AND REPAIRED AS NECESSARY.
