I’m using the Z13/8 as the basis of my -8A electrical design. Feeling pretty smug since no major problems encountered so far with the wiring. But as always, the devil is in the details.
Just noticed that the 14 AWG wire going from the battery contactor to the battery bus has a little * next to it that refers to a note that sez: 6 inches or less.
I’m using fuse blocks mounted in the right forward baggage compartment as the bus location. Wire length is closer to 18 inches than 6 inches – although I can rearrange fuse block locations by redrilling. Instead, how about using 12 AWG wire instead of 14 AWG?
