McDonnell DouglasCommercial Airplanes DC8 Service Bulletin SummaryNumber: DC8-28-090Original Issue: October 09, 2009 ATA System: 2820 SUBJECT: FUEL - Fuel Tank Fill Control Indicating System - Install Fuel Tank Float Switch In-Line Fuses

CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS None.

BACKGROUND An analysis by Boeing has determined that float switch wires located on the left and right wing leading edge at the front spar are routed in the same bundles as power lines. If a short circuit between a float switch wire and a power wire occurs, an over current can cause excessive temperatures in the float switch wires, resulting in damage. Adding an in-line fuse as a self-contained component in each float switch circuit will minimize the possibility of excessive temperatures in the float switch wires. If not corrected, and there is a short circuit of the float switch wire to a power wire, possible damage to the float switch wire could occur, and become a potential ignition source into the fuel tank and consequent fire or explosion.

This service bulletin is the result of the safety assessments conducted by Boeing under a Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) 88, Fuel Tank System Fault Tolerance Evaluation Requirements.

Critical Design Configuration Control Limitation (CDCCL) 20-10 from Report MDC-02K9030 affects airplane maintenance documents.

ACTION This service bulletin installs fuel tank float switch in-line fuses in the left and right wing leading edge front spar.
