Engine Subsystem · Engine Components
The overridable engine power limitation (EPL) is a limiter function for mechanically controlled main engines that caps the maximum engine power or shaft power, for example to meet energy efficiency requirements. The limit can be overridden by authorised action when additional power is needed for safety, and the use is logged. It is part of the engine's control and monitoring setup on board.
What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.
Surveyors verify the approved power limit setting against the certificate, the sealing or protection of the limiter settings, the override function and its record keeping, and the calibration of the power or torque measurement.
Carry spare sensors used for power or torque measurement, seals for the limiter and override devices, and fuses and control modules specified for the engine control system.
