'Lectric Listers, We're re-doing the entire panel on a flying RV-6A, replacing the vacuum gauges with GRT, going with dual Lightspeed ignitions, solving noise problems, cleaning up wire routing, and generally bringing it up to "Aeroelectric" best practices. The aircraft belongs to my father-in-law, who bought it flying from the original builder. I am the sucker, I mean electrical engineer, who volunteered to do all the design work. Being an EE means I tend to over-analyze things, so if you all think I'm being too concerned here or there, feel free to tell me so. With that in mind, I would appreciate feedback on the load analysis and architecture selection. I have attached a .pdf of the latest rendition. Items highlighted in yellow are total guesses -- if anyone knows better numbers, by all means speak up. Items in bold/italic are items that will remain powered via e-bus if the primary alternator fails. If anyone would like a copy of the original spreadsheet, e-mail me off-list and I'll send it to you. Mission: Day/Night VFR, future IFR when pilots appropriately rated (we're both private, non-instrument rated). We will include the SD-8 alternator, and use dual displays (GRT HX and HS) with dual AHRS for redundancy. Architecture: I am recommending Z-10/8 to avoid rebooting the displays upon startup. It adds a contactor, but my FIL requested that the displays remain up during cranking. Is there anything missing from the analysis? Have I chosen appropriate flight phases and loads? The flight current loads seem smaller than I was expecting, since I've heard people clamoring for 60+ amp alternators. The current main alternator is a special case, so I'll reserve discussion for a separate e-mail post. ____________ -Jeff- Albuquerque, NM ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 09:04:44 PM PST US Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: Icomm IC-A200 music and iPhone inputs From: Michael Welch Bill, If you go to the Icom website, you can pull up the pin diagram for the A-200. I wired my intercom to the A-200 fairly easily, and also added the Dynon D10A audio alarm. You shouldn't have any problems once you get the diagram for the pins.
