Narrative:
Cleared GPS runway 17 approach to bmg. [During the approach] the copilot side mfd went black. We were not concerned as we were established on the approach and the conditions would have allowed us to proceed VFR had we needed. Between 15-30 seconds [later] we noticed a small puff of white smoke appear from the panel around and above the copilot mfd.smoke and smell in cockpit. Electrical fault suspected.we proceeded with memory items for smoke in the cockpit; and continued on the approach. Having been cleared for the approach we continued to configure the aircraft for landing while completing the landing checklist using the laminated cockpit checklist.I did not sense there was any further puffs of smoke while airborne; but the smell of electrical burning was evident. We continued to an uneventful landing. As we taxied in to the ramp; I sensed another 'puff' of smoke above the panel. After a brief taxi to the ramp we shut down the aircraft and removed all electrical power. The passenger disembarked and may not have known that we had experienced a malfunction as the cabin did not appear to have the electrical smell that we had in the cockpit.we had the cabin fire extinguisher available in the cockpit in case of any further smoke.
