    Subject: 3300A Electrical System Questions
    I have my 3300A physically installed in my CH601 HD using the JabiruUSA FWF kit. I have a couple questions about the electrical system. First, let me also tell you that I am an electrical novice, so I may be missing some rather basic information. I have Revision 4 of the 3300A Installation Manual dated 22/08/03. On page 10 is the electrical system. It does not include a battery contactor. Why is one not included? Is there a problem if I decide to add one based on other builder's recommendations? On the same diagram, the master switch controls only the battery. There is no alternator master switch. Looking at the figure on page 18, the single phase alternator is hooked up very differently than the old three phase alternator. I have been told that Jabiru used to recommend an alternator master switch. Does that only apply to the old three phase alternators? Do I need one? Thank you. Jeff Davidson Herndon, Virginia

    Subject: Interview from Sebring Florida show
    You might be interested to view an interview we did about the Jabiru engine, at last month's Sport Aviation Expo in Sebring, Florida. It wasn't rehearsed, so please forgive the occasional 'ummm' and 'ahhh'. You'll need DSL / broadband as (I think) it's a non-downloadable streaming video file.

    Hi Jeff, The alternator master is only needed with the old 3 phase. It was necessary to prevent the rectifier burning out when the engine had not been started but the master was on.
