🔍 Key Concepts

• Semi-automatic navigation light panels use a trouble relay that changes contact position when the primary lamp current is lost. • The buzzer bus in the master section and the indicator light in the line section are both controlled by the trouble relay contacts. • When the transfer switch is on the primary lamp, the secondary lamp is still available but normally not energized until a failure is detected.

💭 Think About

• Trace the circuit from the supply bus, through the primary lamp, to the trouble relay coil: what happens to the coil when the primary lamp burns out? • With the relay coil de-energized, use the contact positions shown in the diagram to see which paths close toward the buzzer bus and which toward the indicator lamps. • Ask yourself: in a fault condition, should the bridge know which line has failed, and should the master indicator go on or off to show a system fault?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify, using the contacts shown with coil de-energized, which indicator (master or line section) is connected to the buzzer bus in the failure condition. • Check whether the master indicator is wired in series or parallel with the buzzer, and whether loss of the primary lamp removes power from that circuit. • Confirm whether the line section indicator is normally dark in healthy operation and only receives power via the trouble relay when the primary lamp circuit opens.
