Continuing wiring the power distribution
2h
June 28, 2026
A little more progress on the power distribution wires.
The progress is slow due to vacation time, but I did a little bit of wiring in between my two weeks off.
First, I figured out the ground wire routing and mounted the Amploc KEY100 Hall effect sensors to the F-6118 rudder brace with some huge Adel clamps.
These two sensors will be measuring the current "leaving" the corresponding ground wires of the batteries, which should give me a positive current when the batteries are being charged.
Then I mounted two of my STPS24045TV diodes on the fuse panel.
And two other diodes -- next to the engine bus.
I think that with the whole airframe around them acting as a heat sink, they should get enough cooling, but I will run a 30A test on the engine bus diodes to see what their temperature looks like.
