Can a ground path generate enough EMF to adversely affect a
magnetometer? I had planned to use the upper longerons as the ground
path for the elevator trim and tail strobe/position light wiring, but
I=99m mounting the Dynon Skyview ADAHRS on a bracket bridging the
longerons, bringing the two in close proximity. Makes me wonder if I
would be better off running separate ground wires.

Hi Stan,
Always run separate ground wires. I never depend on the airframe for grounding
anything. I bring all of the ground wires up to a single point behind the panel.
I ZERO and I mean ZERO alternator noise in my headphones.

I mounted my Dynon Magomenter/AHRS right behind the elevator bellcrank on the RV-6.
The compass swings a far amount when I move the elevator though full-throws.
In contrast, in the RV-8, I mounted the magnometers under the vertical fin
and had no problems with erroneous movements or alignment.
