Unsafe Condition

The hot battery bus bar was wrongly installed on the lower (load) side of the hot battery bus fuse assembly instead of the upper (power) side, resulting in a single five amp fuse supplying power to all systems connected to the bus, which could lead to loss of electrical power to emergency equipment such as engine fire extinguisher bottles, firewall shutoff valves, cockpit emergency lighting, and engine fire extinguisher indicator lights.

Required Actions

Visually inspect the hot battery bus fuse assembly for proper wiring, correct the wiring if incorrect prior to further flight, and modify the wiring to add a redundant power source for the hot battery bus as specified in Beech Service Bulletin No. 2562.
