Description

Specifies the minimum requirements for an Airport Lighting Control and Monitoring System (ALCMS). The ALCMS simplifies the control and monitoring of lighted visual aids and enhances airport safety. The basic function of the system remains the same whether for a general aviation airport that supports only a few operations in a day or a large commercial airport that caters to hundreds of operations on any given day.

Effective six months after the issue date of the AC, only that equipment qualified in accordance with this specification will be listed in accordance with AC 150/5345-53, Airport Lighting Equipment Certification Program. Airports that have previously installed an Airport Lighting Control and Monitoring System (ALCMS) will not be required to install a new system after the effective date of the AC.
