Hello Kolb Flyers,

Things on the list seem a little slow….. so I soon will need to jump into setting up the electrical system in my Kolbra, and my “hot box” wants to be grounded to the frame. So please share your suggestions with me. I have not put too much effort in to studying aircraft electrical systems yet.

I'm sure grounding to the frame will work fine. Many people do it. I just felt more comfortable with a separate grounding plate for all components.

See attached picture. It's the brass/copper colored plate mounted to the aluminum seat pan.

Nick, I've wired up two Kolbs using Aeroelectric Connection architecture Z-17. On the second one I pulled out a Hot Box because I don't like devices that have wires disappearing into a riveted box and I was trying to save every ounce possible on a massively overweight -3X. Being winter in the land of no sun, you'll really gain from reading Bob Knuckoll's book (best $20 you'll ever spend) and joining his forum here on Matronics.
