- Page 1 of 7 - BC425_Info_Rev. C (07/18/19) 123 East 4th St, P.O. Box “B” · Newton KS 67114-0894 Telephone (316) 283-8000 · Fax (316) 283-7400 The B&C Standby Alternator System for the Cessna 210 The B&C Standby Alternator system provides improved safety of flight for owners of Cessna 210 aircraft, with ease of operation and exceptional dependability. STC/PMA approved for installation on Cessna 210L, 210M, 210N, T210L, T210M, T210N, and P210N aircraft. Eligible serial numbers are detailed on page 3. In operation, the B&C Standby Alternator system monitors the aircraft bus voltage in the background, automatically signaling its operation to the pilot through a panel-mounted annunciator light (which also doubles as a standby alternator load monitor). If the primary alternator should fail in flight, the Standby Alternator system will sense the resulting drop in bus voltage and automatically activate. Rated to provide 20 amps of power to support continued flight, if load requirements exceed 20 amps the panel-mounted annunciator will flash, alerting the pilot to the condition. Reducing load usage to 20 amps or less will cause the annunciator to cease flashing and illuminate in a steady state. The pilot may choose equipment needed for the given flight conditions by simply keeping the total load below the flashing point of the - Page 2 of 7 - BC425_Info_Rev. C (07/18/19) annunciator. This will reserve battery energy for transient loads, (gear, flaps, landing lights, etc.) during approach. Loads may be beyond the flashing point of the annunciator for up to five (5) minutes without damaging the standby alternator. Installation Notes The standby alternator is mounted on the right-hand accessory drive pad on the Continental engine to allow throttle linkage clearance. As a result, the vacuum pump usually mounted in this location must be moved to the left-hand accessory drive pad. Panel mounted equipment includes a STBY ALT ON annunciator, a STBY ALT toggle type breaker and two standard pull type circuit breakers (1 amp and 40 amp). Appropriate placards are provided for each panel mounted device. The standby alternator controller (regulator) is mounted behind the interior panel near the pilot’s left leg. - Page 3 of 7 - BC425_Info_Rev. C (07/18/19) B & C Specialty Products Inc.

C (07/18/19) Range of Applications The B&C Specialty Products Standby Alternator System has been installed in thousands of certified aircraft over the past 20 years. It has been factory-installed on the Mooney Ovation and Acclaim since June 1996; on the Beech Bonanza since mid-2000; and on the Quest Kodiak since 2008. B&C also holds an STC for installation of the Standby Alternator system in Piper PA32 aircraft and has cooperated on an STC/PMA installation for Cessna 182 and 206 aircraft with Lycoming powerplants (contact us for details). For individuals interested in obtaining one-time field approvals on aircraft not yet covered by the STC, a general system wiring diagram has been provided in this brochure to assist in these efforts. We will continue to work on STC’s for other models. Please let us know if you are interested in the Standby Alternator system for your aircraft – and feel free to call if you have any questions.
