At SIAE 2017, Nicomatic and ECA Group announced the development of an electrical testing solution designed for both civilian and military aerospace customers. The partnership resulted in a user-friendly and compact tool to work on complex electrical networks.

TC50-eTool an innovative complete testing solution designed to be used by avionic electricians. Portable and battery-powered, TC50-eTool uses the latest technologies to help maintenance operators on a daily basis by integrating all testing equipment in one single toolbox. Users will be able to reduce the down-time of their aircraft and better anticipate possible issues through preventive actions.

TC50-eTool offers a user-friendly interface based on an included rugged smartphone, allowing simple web user interface accessible through any device.

The unique Plug & Test system of this solution permits on a wire network, to conduct testing operations with no risk of cable alteration.

This TC50-eTool offers thus multiple functionalities such as integrated Distance-to-Fault to perform quick diagnosis and reduce aircraft's time on ground.

This comprehensive approach to aircraft troubleshooting enables to carry out a wide range of tests including:

  • Wire fault localization
  • Phase order check
  • Wire continuity / insulation tests
  • Voltage / current measure
  • Diode testing
  • Thermal imaging

This new ECA Group solution is especially suited for aeronautic applications as it is validated on most-used aeronautic cable types and its integrated approach enables cable database upgrades.

The T-Cell Technology developed by ECA Group enables to perform a very extensive battery of electrical tests on board aircraft. Thanks to its compact, modular and evolutive design, T-CELL-based test products have been very successful with aerospace customers, with over 10,000 modules already in service.
