CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS None.

BACKGROUND This service bulletin will reduce the possibility of water penetration into the main equipment center (MEC).

Cracking of the MEC drip shield has allowed water to drip past the MEC drip shield and through the exhaust plenum into the MEC. Water penetration into the MEC could result in loss of flight critical systems.

An operator experienced a loss of bus control unit (BCU) #1 and generator control units (GCU's) #1 and #2 while the airplane was still on the ground.

Cracking in the MEC drip shield and exhaust plenum have each been identified as part of the leak path into the MEC. Multiple operators have reported cracked MEC drip shield. These cracks can allow water to penetrate the MEC drip shield and enter the MEC.

This service bulletin will install a fiberglass reinforcing overcoat as a terminating action.

Boeing Service Related Problem (SRP) 747-SRP-25-0284 is related to this service bulletin.

ACTION (PRR 85901-102RS)

- Install honeycomb stiffening panels

- Install a fiberglass reinforcing overcoat

EFFECTIVITY 747-400F/-400 Airplanes. Refer to Paragraph 1.A.1., Airplanes for the list of affected airplanes.
