| Subject: | Re: 3300A Electrical System Questions |
Jeff,
I use a battery contactor on my Zodiac 601XL/Jab3300A, activated by the
master switch. I also use a relay operated by an alternator switch to bring
power from the alternator to the buss bar. The "Master Switch" is a split
Cessna type (Master and Alternator switch). If you close the Alt you
automatically close the Master. I procured the relay from Radio Shack.
