| Subject: | Choosing the switches |
Guys
It's time to choose the switches for the RV-10 panel, and I wonder which
ones are more popular between the RV-10 builders:
For the Master and ALT field, have you used the Cessna split rocker or just
2 separate toggle switches?
For the magnetos and starter, did everybody use the ACS combined keyed
switch, or is it better to use 2 toggles and one push-button momentary
starter switch?
And for the lights and other electrical equipment, which has been the
choice: the classic rocker switches or the color coded toggle switches?
Thanks for your opinions
Carlos

I think there is too much customization and personal preference, that there
really isn't a defacto popular choice.
For example, for those of us that have Vertical Power units, all the
switches are just logic switches and carry no real current. This means we
can be a little more creative on which switches we use. For most of my
switches I took the easy way out. It also means that the VP device controls
the master and alternator functions.
Since I have an Aerosport Products' instrument panel and I have a
relationship with Aerosport Products (I manage the website for them), I went
with Geoff's rocker switches. They work just fine.
I did use the ACS keyed switch, since I only wanted to carry a single key
for the ignition, doors, and baggage door.
Almost all my switches are rockers. I have only one color coded switch, the
rest are all black. I started to color coded them, but quickly realized all
the same colors were grouped together. i.e. a bank of four all red. Since
the banks of switches all have different functions, I used the physical
placement to differentiate rather than color.

ah... the simple things can be so hard. I'm trying to install my PCU5000-X
Prop Governor. The instructions call for a "suitable" release agent to be
applied to the gasket. Any idea what that might be?

I have usually installed simple toggle switches for most things, with the no
rmal key switch for mags and starter. I also like separate toggle switches f
or mags.
For master and alt, I like to use a toggle switch for master and to put alt f
ield on my avionics bus so it comes on with the avionics master. I use the K
lixon pull able breakers so I can reset it if necessary.
I prefer toggle switches because it is easier to add one after the panel is f
inished by simply drilling a round hole.
The classy rocker switches are very nice to look at, and I like the way they
can be labeled right on the switch, but they are more expensive and harder t
o add or remove. I recently worked on a plane that had all rocker switches (
the big black ones that were engraved with labels. There are 4-5 switches th
at aren't used any more and if I remove them, there will be big holes in the
panel.
Just MHO.

Classic toggles on my panel other than a standard keyed mag/start switch
for a bit of security and large two position toggle for BATT and ALT.
You can purchase a toggle almost anywhere in a pinch and silly simple to
install, wire and operate.

I prefer the mags on toggles so if I want to clear the engine I can turn it
with the ignition off.
I used to have a separate position for the alternator field but now it
comes on with the battery.

Especially for those with light 3 bladed props, having seperate switches for either
mags or elec ignition, you can leave the ignition off until the blades get
turning, then flip them on..... no kickpack or backfiring. Works everytime.
