Is the green box on the RH Outboard Wing LE indicating the locked Refuelling panel.Is the E190 panel equipped with a warning or is it something else?

It just shows the fueling door is closed and locked. In your picture it showing all doors closed and locked.... except the forward pax and service. You will also get a red box if the vent flaps are not closed.

L1 - R1 (actually the vent flap door. It will show red unless they are closed )
Forward Cargo Door ( actually the vent flap door as well )
L - R Overwing Doors

Thanks.it sure was a good guess....I think now Mx training on the E190 will be easy for me wink

Do you have a pic of the Electronic compartment.Also why does the Refuelling panel have a warning.Has something gone wrong,as B737/757 don't.

It is just a warning that the panel is opened and the fueling panel is powered.

With it, a "refueling" in cyan appears on the EICAS.

true.but the B737/757 does not have it.My question is why did emb think it was needed.Was there an occassion where it was unlocked earrlier.Why have expenditure & spares on a unpressurized panel that could be checked from outside.

My question is why did emb think it was needed.

Probably just information to the cockpit crew advising that the aircraft is being refueled, not as much that the panel is open. As you probably know, the wings are not that easily visible.

It was the same on the narrow body Airbus. There was an ECAM message indicating when the aircraft was being refueled.

In my airline, there are very slight procedural changes when the aircraft is in the process of being refueled than when not.

The B737/B757 are old 1960's technology. It is been a long time since I flew an aircraft that did not advice the crew when being refueled.

It's nice to know.

The fuel door indicator is especially handy these days because everybody is so concious about fuel usage. We usually turn the APU off at the gate as soon as we can but if the fuel door is open, we can assume they're fueling and therefore can't touch it.

SOP at S5 also dictated that you don't turn the beacon on and call for the before start checklist until the cargo doors are closed. You can hear the front one close usually but you can't hear the back and they are both very hard to see without some body contortion.
