Unsafe Condition

Certain fuel tube self-bonded couplings do not provide sufficient lightning current capability, and a single failure of the integral bonding wire could affect electrical bonding between the tubes, potentially leading to arcing and ignition inside the fuel tank during lightning strikes.
