Abstract
A method for assembling a gas turbine engine is described. The method includes coupling a first fuel system interface (FSI-1) to a second fuel system interface (FSI-2), and coupling one of the FSI-1 and the FSI-2 to the engine. The method includes coupling a first control system and a second control system to the FSI-1 and to the FSI-2. The first control system includes a first driver A and a second driver A, and the second control system includes a first driver B and a second driver B. The method includes configuring the first control system and the second control system to apply a first over-speed logic algorithm and a second over-speed logic algorithm to determine operation of the first driver A, the second driver A, the first driver B, and the second driver B.
