I have been focused on getting the cradle done because the harness builder is waiting on me for the box location pictures, and measurements, to be able to build the wire harnesses. With the box locations known at this point, I decided to take a break from the rigors of cradle making to go back and secure the battery power wire (#2 AWG) wire so that I could finish up my use of the crimper that I borrowed from the EAA chapter I belong to.
So - I ran the big thick wire from the battery area up thru the firewall pass=thru and then started at the back by the battery with securing the wire. I was going to run the wire thru a conduit but decided to just use adel clamps and a little bit of conduit in special places to be able to inspect the wire during maintenance.
I might have to move the adel clamp forward a bit to ensure that the aileron tubes do not rub on the wire, so I will check that. Other than that, I have it secured the wire up thru the wing spar opening...more to come.
cable connects to the left side of the battery contactor and runs under the battery tray
