More wiring work today. The wire coming from fuses on the firewall back to the main buss is a hefty 6awg. This wire needs to power two rows of breakers on the main buss and the primark feed to the avionics buss. To make splitting the output easier I decided to use a two-pole terminal buss. I fabbed up this part myself from four pieces of lexan. One thick chunck I had leftover from some other project and three this bits. Brass bolts pass through the thick piece and are tied together with some 0.063 copper buss bar (same used on the master contactor). Two of the 1/8" pieces of lexan have lage holes to accomodate the bolt heads. The last piece of lexan is on the bottom of the assembly to keep the bolt heads from contacting the airframe even if the become loose.
There are two countersunk holes for #8 screws that mount the block to the airframe. All of the plastic parts are glued together except for the bottom piece, that is held in place by the screws.
The second pictore shows the connection to the main buss (big wire). I could have used 8awg here, but I already have 6awg, so no point in buting more wire for a short run. The other wire comming from that terminal block connects to the breaker for the avionics buss main feed. to the lower left you can see the two wires connecting to the avionics buss. Those are main and alternate feed from the relays on the right I do have a third row of breakers on the bottom, I still need to connect a feed to them.
The third picture is a close-up of one of the 6awg terminal ends. These are mil-spec connectors and I am using a hydraulic hex-crimp. That wire will fall apart before those crimps do.
