Below is a quote from an experienced repairman.  It seems that most electrical

failures are due to poor workmanship, not due to the chosen architecture or 

hardware.  Read the complete post here:

		  With regards to electrically dependent aircraft, we've had 24 years 

supplying and supporting them and based on tech and feedback over that time, 

the #1 cause of no electrons flowing is poor wiring practices- ground and power 

connections/ bad crimps, #2 is routing near sharp and hot stuff with inadequate 

thermal and chafe protection, #3 poor strain relief and support. Switch gear 

stuff is well down the list in causing issues.

Pick all the high dollar components you want but more important is how the 

electrical system is put together.
