Subject: AeroElectric-List: Continuous Lacing

I was planning to use the continuous lacing technique suggested in The
AeroElectric Connection, rather than tie wraps, to bundle wires between
support points, (for example the wires I am routing through my wings for
lighting), for the beneficial reasons that Bob provided.  However, I just
came across a paragraph in AC 43.13-1B, Section 8 - Wiring Installation
Inspection Requirements - paragraph i., which states "Continuous lacing
(spaced 6 inches apart) is not used, except in panels and junction boxes
where this practice is optional".  This seems to conflict with the
continuous lacing suggestion.  Can anyone clarify for me?  

Thanks,
Dave Van Lanen

   What you've drawn will function as advertised but
   I'm curious as to why you did not adopt a version
   of Z-16 . . .

   . . . your proposed system has no control over the
   alternator, no ov protection. I presume that your
   EIS has some form of low voltage warning but if not,
   that should be a component of your design goals as
   well. The choice of ignition/starter controls doesn't
   impact functionality. Z-16 with the e-bus removed
   seems more suited to service in the small airplane.

Bob,

Thanks for your suggestions, my circuit is still a =93work in 
progress=94 and I
think I will adopt a version of Z-16. 

Tim.
