Subject: AeroElectric-List: Lancair 360 Alternator field wire My alternator field wire connects to the LR3C and at the moment, this wire runs in close proximity to sensor wires (EGT,CHT,FF, etc) and Im getting some erratic indications on the MVP-50. With the alternator off, everything is quiet. So Im wondering what should be the minimum distance between the alternator field wire and the other sensor wires? Also, the LR3C is supposed to be linear and quiet, but would there be any benefit to locating an electrolytic capacitor between terminals 4 and 7? Thanks, Angier Ames N4ZQ ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 07:38:31 AM PST US From: Jeff Luckey Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: Lancair 360 Alternator field wire Angier,=0A=0A=0AThe hypothesis is that noise on the field wire is interferi ng w/ instrumentation. I agree w/ you that it seems a little odd consideri ng, as you point out that "... the LR3C is supposed to be linear and quiet. ." and that the max current it handles is around an amp.=0A=0AIn an effort to isolate some variables, is it practical to disconnect the existing field wire and route a temporary one away from the sensors and perform your test s again?=0A=0A=0A-Jeff=0A=0A=0A=0AOn Thursday, October 2, 2014 6:37 AM, "Gr eenbacks, UnLtd." wrote:=0A =0A=0A=0A--> AeroElectric-Li st message posted by: "Greenbacks, UnLtd." =0A=0AMy alter nator field wire connects to the LR3C and at the moment, this wire runs in close proximity to sensor wires (EGT,CHT,FF, etc) and I=99m getting s ome erratic indications on the MVP-50.
