Comments/Questions: Bob,
Can I hook up a short 4 guage wire to the positive battery terminal, then
when I want to either charge the battery or use ground power, hook up to
the appropriate ground power, a positive lead jumper cable to the 4 guage
wire I hooked up to the battery terminal, and the negative ground jumper
cable to the exhause pipe? Would this provide the same ground power and
charging capability as installing a ground power recepticle?

No. The schematics for ground power include
reverse polarity protection, pilot control of
ground power from the cockpit and over voltage
protection. Further, the receptacle offers a means
by which many FBO's can provide you the ground
power service by using a connector that's common
to their suite of ramp tools.
