    Subject: Avionics ground bus
    Hey Bob! That avionics ground bus you sell worked great on my project. Included in the kit were some long D-sub female pins. I used some to double up small wires and to attach a few 18 awg wires with. Can you tell me the PN# please? I need a few more. BTW, the panel & electrical is now about done, I used your ideas, book & web page a great deal on this project so thanks for the help! Here's the finished project: http://www.maddyhome.com/canardpages/pages/tim/chapter22.html Thanks, Tim

I don't recall the event at all. Were these pins with wire grips that extended out past connector body and would accept wire larger than 20AWG?

    On that subject, I have one 18 gauge ground from my avionics stack that I couldn't put into the ground bus. I was going to run a separate wire to the firewall forest of tabs. Is there a better way? Ditto on the book and website. Thanks, Michael Wynn RV 8 Wiring San Ramon, CA In a message dated 6/10/2011 1:04:35 P.M.

    Perhaps they came from the 327 install kit? Mine came with 4. On Jun 10, 2011, at 16:00, "Robert L.

I did put all the pins from the install kits into the same container, I bet they came from Garmin. They are about 1/4" longer and will accept a 18awg wire, why longer I have no idea. Tim

Butt splice or lap solder two 22AWG wires onto end of 18AWG. Then terminate the two smaller wires into the D-sub pins. Bob . . .

    From: Franz Fux <franz@lastfrontierheli.com>
    Hi Bob, I would like to ask you a question regarding the wiring of the starter in my plane. It has the left mag and an electronic ignition. I fly an RV7 wired according to Diagram #11 and the addition of #25 (I believe) for the electronic ignition on the top plugs. The way it is wired I need to have the mag on and the electronic ignition off in order for the starter to engage. I would like to change over to either start on both or the electronic ignition only for better starting. Could you let me know how I would go about accomplishing that task Thanks Franz Fux RV7A 450h

They are about 1/4" longer and will accept a 18awg wire, why >longer I have no idea. Because the wire grip for 18AWG won't go into the d-sub connector housing. So they use a longer pin to effect the crimp just outside the housing. I'd prefer to spread the loads over two pins as putting a too-big wire into one pin. See previous post. Bob . . .
