WRT Z101, during operation would you advise setting the Aux switches ON
or OFF?

For normal ops, not necessary. When MAIN BUS is hot,
all busses are hot. Even if you're flying on the AUX
ALT, no repositioning of other switches is necessary
-unless- selective load reductions are necessary based
on criticality of individual busses.
Distribution of loads to the various busses is part
of your design goals for crafting Plan A, everything
up and running -OR- Plan B, continued flight to intended
destination on the AUX alternator.
It may not be the same for every project. But if
one feels better with alternate feeds ON . . . it
doesn't hurt anything. There are no risks that arise
from 'mis-positioning' any switch.
Like the legacy z-figures, this suite of drawings will
be supported with copious notes including a pre-flight
checklist that will exercise all funtionalities
before launching into the blue.

| Subject: | Z-12 Architecture, Back-Up Alternator Wiring |
The Z-12 Architecture looks like it will fit my goals for my RV-7 I'm building.
The question I could not find an answer to when searching this list is:
For economic reasons, can I wire for the back-up alternator but not install it
until a later date?
If I can defer the installation of the alternator and regulator, would I just secure
the wiring to prevent shorts or are there other considerations?
And while we are discussing the Z-12 Architecture...is there a newer version not
in the 12 edition? Seem to me I ran across a reference to an updated version
(Z-01?) on this list but I have been unable to find that reference again.

Hi Mike,
There's a thread called " New role for the E-Bus?" at http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?t=16775049&sid=beec687018ed2b0a52a9d69799f3d944
Bob introduces the new Z-101, labeled "preliminary" at this time, on the fourth page of that thread starting with this posting: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?t=16775049&start=76&sid=beec687018ed2b0a52a9d69799f3d944
Bob has a tremendous number of files online.
The PDF drawings are in the folder called "Adobe_Architecture_Pdfs" at: http://www.aeroelectric.com/PPS/

Sure

Nope, just cap the wires and mechanically secure them.

See my posting 4/14/20 on "New Role for the E-bus"
where you'll find links to a suite of drawings
presently being reviewed here on the List.
Do you plan an electrically dependent engine?

Thank you for the feedback...
I found the files, can't wait to look them over thoroughly.
I'm planning on one Pmag...I'm not sure if that qualifies as electrically dependent
but I would guess yes.
Is the new thinking that Z-12 is outdated? I worked my way through the book and
really like Z-12.
