Relaying a TM correction.[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED]Dear Half-Mast, I have a problem with Figure 15 on Pages C-42 and C-43 in the 3-KW TQG TQG Tactical Quiet Generator (Army) technical manual, TM 9-6115-639-13&P (15 Aug 2005). The drawing and the parts list shows all three electromagnetic electromagnetic /elec·tro·mag·net·ic/ (-mag-net´ik) involving both electricity and magnetism. electromagnetic pertaining to or emanating from electromagnetism. relays as identical. But they're not! The first two relays are 24 VDC VDC Volts Direct Current VDC Venture Development Corporation VDC Vehicle Dynamic Control VDC Village Development Committee (Nepal) VDC Virtual Data Center VdC Verband der Cigarettenindustrie and the last relay is 110-120 VAC (Volts Alternating Current) See volt and AC. . If a soldier plugs a 24 VDC relay into the socket meant for a 110-120 VAC relay, when the generator is started, the relay coil will burn up! Am I crazy? Or is the TM wrong? SGT A.M.I. Dear Sergeant A.M.I., You're not crazy! The TM is wrong for the 60 Hz model of the generator. (It's right for the 400 Hz model.) 60 Hz, 3-KW TQG maintainers, get out your stubby stub·by adj. stub·bi·er, stub·bi·est 1. a. Having the nature of or suggesting a stub, as in shortness, broadness, or thickness: stubby fingers and toes. b. pencil and make these changes in TM 9-6115-639-13&P. (If you're using an electronic TM, print the pages and make the changes, then keep those pages with the electronic manual disk.) Make your first change to Figure 15 on page C-42. The figure has three 2's, each one pointing to a relay. Make the 2 on the far right relay, a 2A. [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Now, go to the next page and the parts list. On Item 2, change the quantity from 3 to 2. Now, add an Item 2A. Here's how the addition should look:
Item 2A
SMR PAOZZ
NSN 5945-01-558-5373
CAGE 60886
PART NUMBER RH2B-ULAC-110-120V
DESCRIPTION, (UOC) Relay, Electromagnetic
60 Hz, UOC: LQQ
QTY 1
Now look at Item 3 in that list--the semiconductor device. Add to the item description 60 Hz and a UOC UOC Universitat Oberta de Catalunya UOC University of Canterbury (Christchurch, New Zealand) UOC Usable On Code UOC Ultimate One-Chip (Philips Semiconductor) of LQQ. Change the quantity from 1 to 2. Also, note that although this part is still in stock, it is obsolete OBSOLETE. This term is applied to those laws which have lost their efficacy, without being repealed, 2. A positive statute, unrepealed, can never be repealed by non-user alone. 4 Yeates, Rep. 181; Id. 215; 1 Browne's Rep. Appx. 28; 13 Serg. & Rawle, 447. and you may have a semiconductor device with a part number of 1.5KE51CA instead of the one listed. While you're there, go ahead and add an additional item for 400 Hz needs. Here's how that addition should look:
Item 3
SMR PAOZZ
NSN 5961-01-057-3305
CAGE 81349
PART NUMBER JANTX1N6072A
DESCRIPTION, (UOC) Semiconductor Device
400 Hz, UOC: LQR
QTY 3
