    OK, have reviewed the new drawing (thank you Bob... :D )...but have a couple more questions I am pondering regarding implementation. (1) From my power source to the relay terminals (87). I would like to run a single 12 ga wire from the front of the aircraft where the ANL holder will be located and make a "Y" once I get near the relays for connection to each relay 87 terminal. Best way to fashion the "Y" ? My experience so far seems to say I cannot do a double wire splice/crimp with 12 AWG in a yellow connector. Similarly I would be doing the same thing with the gnd terminals (87A) so I could run a single ground wire forward to my firewall ground. So my question is how best to join two 12 AWG wires to a single 12AWG wire to fashion a "Y". I do have solder sleeves big enough...if that is acceptable? Open to any other ideas. (2) What is the electrical symbology between the relay terminals (30) to the motor - best I can ref is some sort of light indicator? (3) OK to crimp the diode leads in with the 22AWG terminals? Appreciate any comments, insight and suggestions! Dave... Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=480538#480538

How about mounting the relays as close to the ANL30 as practical and simply run two wires to the motor? Mounting the relays close to battery contactor makes all the wires on the ship-side really short. The reason I took both 12AWG tot he ANL30 was for that same reason . . . two terminals on one stud. >(2) What is the electrical symbology between the relay terminals >(30) to the motor - best I can ref is some sort of light indicator? > >(3) OK to crimp the diode leads in with the 22AWG terminals? Hmmmm good question. I was going to send you pre-wired sockets to mate with the relays. You would splice ship's wireing to those flying leads. A soldered lap-splice under heat shrink is fine . . . but makes it tough to install diodes. Here's an alternative: https://goo.gl/QTT74j This shows an S704 with recessed tabs where the pre-wired socket doesn't work. The relays I have ar like this: Emacs! Since you need to apply your own terminals to the coils so you can add diodes, perhaps the sockets are more bother than asset. Let's go with taking ship's wires to the tabs with your own terminals. Another question: What's the plan-b for getting gear down if your power is down or the motor craps or a relay goes toast? Bob . . .

    I could not find that symbol in this pdf: https://www.noao.edu/ets/Mechanical/Policies/ANSI%20Y32.2-1975.pdf My guess is that it is a splice. -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=480544#480544

    > >(2) What is the electrical symbology between the relay terminals >(30) to the motor - best I can ref is some sort of light indicator? Splice. I presume your motor is fitted with flying leads which will get spliced to 12AWG extensions. Bob . . .
