Greetings,
I sent this to the aeroelectric list, but I’m not surprised that it went unanswered. That being said, THANKS to the RV-10 flyers and builders for their assistance. One of the great things about this list is the flyers still stick around!
For those of you who employed Z-14 (Dual Alt/Dual Battery) what have you experienced with your contactor switch settings? I’d hate to make one wrong flip of a switch and fry a G430. I know Bob Condrey and Rick are using this setup. Bill “flying soon” Watson will be using it eventually too.
Thanks,
Phil

Subject: Z-14 Switch Combos
I’m getting a handle on Z-14 from an operational perspective and have a couple of questions about the switch combinations that could create issues.
Obviously with the added complexity of managing two batteries, two alternators, and a cross feed can create some interesting combinations.
Are there any combo’s that we should be aware of that would create over voltage or any other scenarios of concern?
In the event of a failure (for example Alt 2 failure), is there a specific order for shutting off the bad alt and then enabling the cross feed?
Thanks,
Phil

Phil,
I suspect you have more questions but short story is that there is no switch setting on a Z-14 configuration that will “fry” anything. We can discuss when you call.
