The switches are used to test the automatic shut- off features in each tank and to stop refueling when the desired fuel level is attained in each or all tanks. Six of the seven switched are connected to fuel level control valves in a specific tank. The seventh switch, labeled ALL TEST, is electrically connected to the fuel level control valves in all six tanks. Setting any of the six switches to PRI OFF or SEC OFF raises the corresponding primary or secon- dary float in the fuel level control valve. This action simu- lates a high fuel level and causes the fuel shutoff valve in that tank to close. Setting the ALL TEST switch to PRI OFF or SEC OFF raises the corresponding float in all six tanks and shuts off the fuel flow into all tanks simulta- neously. 2-4-16.  REFUEL VALVE POSN Indicating Lights. The   two   amber   PRESS-TO-TEST   REFUEL   VALVE POSN (position) lights (fig. 2-4-6) indicates the status of the two refueling valves in the pressure refueling system. The valves are normally closed and prevent fuel feed- back into the aft auxiliary tanks when the aft tank pumps are operating. While pressure refueling the valves are opened and allow fuel flow from the refueling system into the aft tank. The valves are controlled by the refueling station PWR ON  switch.  When  the  switch  is  ON,  the  valves  are opened and the indicating lights will illuminate momen- tarily indicating valve transition from close to open. Con- versely, when the switch is OFF, the valves are closed and the indicating lights will illuminate momentarily indi- cating valve transition from open to close. A continuously illuminated light, with the switch at OFF, indicates the associated valve is opened and the fuel in the tank will not be available.
