Fixes #9758

Summary of Changes

Fixes a couple of issues in the current A380 electrical system:

  • Improves the behavior of the BCRUs when to open or close the associated battery line contactor
  • Fixes AC GND FLT SERVICE BUS
  • Fixes the battery voltage indicator. Previously the APU and ESS battery voltage were exchanged.

Testing instructions

  1. Check that the electrical system behaves as expected
  2. Check that the batteries disconnect 5 seconds after it's TR doesn't get power from the AC side anymore
  3. Check that nav lights are working without ground power connected and with a fully powered aircraft
  4. Check that the battery voltage indicator shows the voltage of the corresponding battery (for example check with SD page by disconnecting one battery at a time)

Discord Username : bruno_pt99
Object of testing : #9683
Aircraft : A380X
Tier of Testing : 1
Date : 18/01/2025
Testing Process:
Checked electrical system behaves correctly ✔️
Checked nav lights work without GPU connected & aircraft energized ✔️
Checked that the batteries disconnect approximately 5 seconds after the TR is not energized and that the battery voltage indicator on the overhead corresponds to the correct battery ✔️

Testing Results:
Passed

Conclusions:
LGTM. Also tested that ambient light works straight away if GPU 1 is connected but not active/AC GND FLT SERVICE BUS being powered .
