Anyone have any downside comments on mixing electrical and pneumatic
connections on the same connector?
Plan is to mix 8 electrical and 3 pneumatic on port wing
connector, and 6 electrical and 1 pneumatic on starboard wing connector.
The Anderson power pole connectors are reasonably water resistant if
you seal the wire side with thin non corrosive silicone.
Want to tether the wing side connector with 2 very thin bungee cords
to root rib flange. Can easily extend bungee to connect with a 6"
wing to fuse gap.

Thanking all in advance
How many times over the lifetime of the airplane do you
expect to open these connections?
You're about to conduct the grand experiment. You have
a real life test going on connector technologies, assy
techniques and modifications to off-the-shelf products
to satisfy design goals. I'm not sure that the germane
question speaks to "mixing electrical and pneumatic"
connections in the same connector. You're plowing new
ground here. The experience-base from which learned
advice can be gleaned is small to non-existent. You're
on track to becoming the expert on these process and
techniques. Let us know how it works out.
