The risk of static sparking while refuelling can be minimised by a few simple precautions:
- Use a metal rather than a plastic fuel can.
- Earth the aircraft with a wire to the ground.
- Put the fuel container on the ground before refuelling, then pick it up and bring it to the fuel tank in one movement. Constant contact minimises the possibility of differing charges of static electricity developing.
- Don’t pour excessively quickly. As well as possibly splashing fuel around, this increases friction.
- If you feel signs of static developing, such as the hair standing up on your arms, pour more slowly and leave the nozzle inside the fuel tank space for at least 30 seconds after the fuel flow stops. The risk of a spark is greatest when the nozzle is removed from the tank.
