|
|
If my IR alternator ever goes belly up I'll move to an externally regulated one, but for now it is what it is.
I have a 40A internally regulated alternator. I am rewiring my RV-8 to Z-11 standard and want to include OV protection. I have read up on the forums and on AeroElectric Connection. I just want to confirm the latest thinking on OV protection.
1) use a Cb-OV-14 crowbar protection circuit on the Master switch
and
2) a S701-1 B-lead contactor
I am also installing a 60 amp ANL in the B-lead between the alternator and the starter solenoid.
Do I understand the instructions correctly?
Thanks.
