Thanks Bob.  That was also my decision when powering the systems., primarily for having the battery on line but seeing all those other 'smart' TC folks do it the other way was confusing me.  I'm doing it your way!

Bob, Could you expand on the two philosophies or point me to  a further discussion.  I've been wrestling with both ways and each time I decide one way, I think about it some more and change my mind...again?  Is either choice superior or is it six of one and half a dozen of the other?


 If you hook ground power to the battery side of the
 GP_Contactor, you can charge the battery without
 powering up the aircraft. Further, you would not
 be able to hook ground power to the aircraft WITHOUT
 having the battery on line as well. This would be
 my preferred configuration.

 Production TC do it both ways but predominantly
 the OTHER way. I'm mystified as to the rationale
 for doing it the other way . . . somebody made
 that decision long before my time and isn't around
 to explain it any more. I'm unable to deduce
 any advantage that would give it precedence over
 the first way. I am presuming that they had a
 "good" reason but I don't know what it is.
