Quote: | Hello,
A friend of mine that occasionally helps me work on my RV-9 has asked me
some questions that I can't answer satisfactorily. He is a great guy and
has a very curious mind, he owns and works on boats, cars, etc, but
doesn't have a history with aircraft. These are the questions in his own
words posted below. Any help will be gratefully accepted.
In the course of helping a friend construct an RV 9 I had the opportunity
to examine the electrical system design. I was puzzled at the use of a
master relay (solenoid) to switch the entire electrical system. A number
of questions occurred to me regarding this design:<?xml:namespace prefix =
o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
The questions: How much amperage draw does the solenoid consume simply
being energized? At what voltage does the Solenoid release? And why this
design?
