Final answer:

The HYDRAULIC 3A pump is powered by the ADG when all normal AC power is lost, providing energy to essential flight control systems.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hydraulic pump powered by the Air-Driven Generator (ADG) when all normal AC power is lost is the HYDRAULIC 3A pump. The ADG is a backup system designed to deploy automatically in the event of a complete loss of power and provides enough energy to power essential systems, including one of the hydraulic pumps. In this case, the HYDRAULIC 3A pump is driven by the ADG to maintain functionality of critical flight control systems.
