I'm moving on to the electrical systems and considering "power panels".  There seem to be two products in the market to simplify building electrical systems.  These are the EXPBUS 2V by Control Vision Corporation and the Power Panel by Composite Design.  Both also have variations of the product available.  The EXP BUS is sold by Van's for use in the RVs.  Has anyone considered using either of these for 601s?  Any installations or recommendations?  Thanks ….

If you have not already you should read this review and  follow-up of this type of product by Bob Richter of AeroElectric  fame:

  

     www.aeroelectric.com/articles/expbusad.html

     www.aeroelectric.com/articles/expbusthd.html

  

 Also  Bob's book is a great place to start in designing your plane's electrical  system:

  

     www.aeroelectric.com/Catalog/pub/pub.html

  

 When  specific questions pop-up there is also an AeroElectric list hosted by  Matronics.

Jeff,

   I used the EXP BUS EXP-TRAY from Aircraft Spruce in my 701 and love it. It has a lot of great features that you don't even read about until you do the actual installation and read the installation manual. Very easy to install and to modify if you need to.

I used the EXPBus on my 601XL and believe it has some exceptional features 

all packaged in a very small unit.  I did the Aeroelectric thing on the last 

plane I built. It's less expensive doing all the work yourself and it will 

take longer to do. The exp is easy to install, no old time fuses needed--or 

at least a minimal number, takes up little space and has some neat features 

that you probably would not be able to easily make on your own.

It's a great little unit!

Jeff,,

I used the Composite Design on my XL/Jab.  I like it and it made the wiring 

easier.
