Folding wing arrangement with power transmission conduit

An aircraft wing, comprising:

• a fixed wing;
• an outboard wing section outboard of the fixed wing, the outboard wing section comprising at least one power-consuming component;
• and
• a hinge assembly connecting the outboard wing section to the fixed wing,
• wherein,
• the aircraft wing is configurable between:
• (i) a flight configuration for use during flight and (ii) a ground configuration for use during ground-based operations, in which ground configuration the outboard wing section is rotated away from the flight configuration about a hinge axis of the hinge assembly, such that the span of the aircraft wing is reduced,
• wherein,
• the hinge assembly comprises:
• a fore set of interleaving lugs and an aft set of interleaving lugs;
• a fore hinge pin and an aft hinge pin, extending through the fore and aft sets of interleaving lugs respectively, thereby forming a hinge having a hinge axis coaxial to the longitudinal axes of the hinge pins;
• and
• an actuator sandwiched between the fore sets of lugs and the aft sets of lugs, the actuator being configured to rotate the outboard wing section about the hinge axis to move the wing between the flight configuration and the ground configuration;
• wherein the wing further comprises:
• at least one power line configured to supply electrical or hydraulic power to the at least one power-consuming component, the at least one power line passing from the fixed wing to the outboard wing section through the hinge assembly along a forward side of the fore set of interleaving lugs or along an aft side of the aft set of interleaving lugs.
