    Subject: Re: fuses in series
    A question regarding the observation below concerning master switch placement [=9C A friend of mine crashed his F1 rocket at during a go-around at full throttle and ended up trapped upside down. He could smell the fuel from the damaged wing tank but couldn't reach the master switch. Fortunately the electrical system stayed intact and the fuel never ignited. =9D: Q: Is placing the master switch where it is within reach when the pilot is strapped in a [mostly undocumented] requirement? Should it be? The comment reminds me of an auto gymkhana where a race-prepped Healey Sprite suffered a broken throttle return spring and the throttle stuck wide open. The car was piloted by the racer=99s 16 year-old son, who was belted in with the race harness. When strapped in he couldn=99t reach the master off switch, so the car careened around the office building parking lot venue until it left the =98track=99, went into and thru the crowd, and finally dragged one spectator thru the glass curtain wall of the office building =93 all because the driver couldn=99t reach the master off switch when needed. Much serious bodily injury and property damage ensued, and the police cited the youngster for reckless driving [despite the event being caused by a mechanical failure, and on private property as opposed to a public street =93 but all that is a story for another day]. So =93 just wondering how much consideration we do or should give to being able to reach controls that could become critical in certain situations. ---------------- All the best, Al Fuller From: owner-aeroelectric-list-server@matronics.com <owner-aeroelectric-list-server@matronics.com> On Behalf Of Sebastien Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2023 10:35 AM Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: Re: fuses in series We definitely need SOME way to cut electrical power to the aircraft for several different emergency situations. A battery contactor solves this for all but the most sudden and catastrophic situations. A friend of mine crashed his F1 rocket at during a go-around at full throttle and ended up trapped upside down. He could smell the fuel from the damaged wing tank but couldn't reach the master switch. Fortunately the electrical system stayed intact and the fuel never ignited. I don't know of a single crash where a battery fuse could have changed the outcome. As for current limiters rated for short starting loads, I flew King Airs for years with current limiters. We carried spares because they blew on engine start more than once. Beech eventually replaced them with bus ties. When Cessna starts producing single engine aircraft with battery fuses, I think it will be worth another look. In the meantime I don't see a benefit to adding odds and ends to a proven system.

However, it is not zero and the localized heating from such a short could ignite combustibles. As long as the cable is kept away from combustibles, this isn=99t an issue. The difference in current between starting and a significant short is pretty large so viable overcurrent protection is feasible. For example, most engines in EA-B aircraft probably draw 100 amps or less during starting. It takes a fairly large engine to draw 200 amps (think diesel pickup truck or larger). Yes, the initial current when the starter is not turning can be twice or more the normal cranking current, but that is very short duration and is not likely to blow/trip a 200 A fuse or breaker. A short circuit of a battery can easily draw 1000 amps or more which would blow a 200 A fuse fairly quickly. <https://www.sbsbattery.com/PDFs/VRLAshortCurrentsStorageBatterySystems.p df> VRLAshortCurrentsStorageBatterySystems <https://www.sbsbattery.com/PDFs/VRLAshortCurrentsStorageBatterySystems.p df> PDF Document =C2=B7 163 KB <https://www.cessnaflyer.org/maintenance-tech/item/1151-save-your-starter .html> Cessna Flyer Association - Save your Starter <https://www.cessnaflyer.org/maintenance-tech/item/1151-save-your-starter .html> cessnaflyer.org <https://youtu.be/d2nPHWNoDSA> youtu.be <https://youtu.be/d2nPHWNoDSA> <https://youtu.be/d2nPHWNoDSA> <https://youtu.be/d2nPHWNoDSA> <https://youtu.be/d2nPHWNoDSA> I believe overcurrent protection on a battery is easily accomplished, but I tend to agree with Bob that the likelihood of needing this is small.

Not sure the practicality of trying to size a current limiter that would not open under cranking loads but still open with a hard fault. The guestimated risk for me centers on the probability of hitting the planet without knowing it's coming and thereby not getting the master off in time.

    If you're following the Z101 that you attached, the aux alternator controller should be on the Essential Bus and the bus control should be as drawn. On the issue of load distribution across buses, you can extend a 'bus' by simply adding another fuse block and tying the input posts together. If 20 isn't enough, just add another 6, or 10, or 12, or whatever slots with another block and tie their inputs together.

    Thanks Charlie, I thought about adding but then, is there a drawback to have a tad more (about 4) on the essential (as I have aux generator) so the battery only operation is a very very low probability and I still could switch a few things off manualy if needed.

    As long as the aux generator can 'tote the load', then it shouldn't be an issue. But if it can't, I'd probably think twice before loading up the essential bus that much, for simple human factors reasons. Stress would be higher from losing the primary alt, so adding to the work load to remember to load shed sounds like a less than good idea. ;-) Something else to consider is that I've never had a homebuilt that survived 1st configuration (meaning as-bought, for me) for very long, and I'm pretty sure that there are things I'll change on my project-RV7's wiring that's 'complete'. When you fly for 6 months and realize that there's one more electrical gadget you'd like to add, from where will it get power? I like 'spares'. I've got a spare (used) microwave stashed in the hangar, to pull out for temporary use if the built-in in the house dies (and it's been used that way). Spare tools in various locations in the hangar and in the walk-in area under the house. I have backups for so many things, my spouse says she thinks I probably have a spare wife stashed under the house for when she's gone. So... I have spare slots in my fuse blocks in the current flying RV6 (which I rewired) and the RV7 project.

    Thanks Charlie, I will reconsider and thinking about 2 10 blockes at the position of the 20 block. the aux should, from the calculation, be more then ok to keep the current essential load but again I will reconsider the split :) one question about the alternate feed, battery and main contactor are in the tail behind baggage bulkhead, do I consider right to have the alternate feed relay at the same place so the hot wire between Battery and Relay is as short as possible?
