 Posted: Wed Jan 22, 2020 12:09 pm Post subject: Is an ATC/ATO Fuse Block a Realistic Single Pt. of Failure? |
 |
|
I am building an electrically dependent airplane and I have used almost entirely fused circuits as Bob has suggested.
So, I will be using two ATC/ATO fuse blocks tied together for my endurance bus. THEORETICALLY each is a single point of failure.
It's difficult to imagine how an entire fuse block could fail if the nuts on the terminals are properly applied. Should I worry about this? What are people's opinions?
Thanks.
Mark

Hi Mark,
In case this works for you... add a 2nd feed stud to the Bussman fuse block... https://photos.app.goo.gl/ZKjbqnU3DfkUKNex2
