Dear All!
Good Morning!
I have a doubt on aviation turbine fuel specifications.
We have a specification for the conductivity. The conductivity is to be maintained between the range 50 - 450 picosiemens / metre.
While I can understand that the lower range of conductivity is to ensure prevention of static electricity related hazards, I cannot comprehend the higher limit for conductivity. I just want to know what is the effect of conductivity if it goes above 450 picosiemens / m in the ATF?
Thanks for everything you do,
Cheers

The answer taken from the Manual on Significance of Tests for Petroleum Products (old issue):
I still recommend reading the above manual.
