Do I understand correctly that only one end the shield of a shielded cable, like from the Bat. terminal of the alternator, should be grounded. |
You should join us on the AeroElectric-List.
The real rule for shields is follow the manufacturer's
instructions. The designer is free to use shields
for tasks OTHER than breaking an electro-static
noise coupling mode.
Folks are fond of parroting rules of one kind or
another . . . but are generally not conversant
in the physics of how shields work and the variety
of additional tasks to which shield may be applied.
You will find no shields on my z-figures other than
those which are useful . . . and they will show
which ends are connected and to what. If you have
shielded wire on your alternator, know that it doesn't
hurt anything . . . but doesn't help anything either.

It's not well organized. Suggest you use the google search
option to look for words and phrases. I'm working on a
bunch of indexing pages to update the website. We're
pre-occupied right now with getting two households moved
to Medicine Lodge, KS and two houses in Wichita sold.
I'll have a lot more time to update the website this
spring/summer.
