Brief Description:  Finished wiring the Ebus / Relay

I still had to wire the switch that operates the E-Bus (Extra Bus) relay and energizes the relay which allows power to flow to the top two rows of the CB's (the Extra Bus). Since I didn't want to forget about those two last wires, I went ahead and finished that job tonight. Running the switch ground wires from the relay thru the switch and to the main cockpit ground allows the switch to do its job.

This entailed measuring the wire, cutting, stripping, and crimping on a connector (4 total), printing up the wire labels (4 total) and then heat shrinking the label. I also documented the wire length, color beginning and end point so I can update my wiring schematic. After that was all done, I hooked up the power and tested the E-Bus switch and found that the end of the E-Bus wire was carrying 13.77 Volts when I flipped on the E-Bus switch! Success.
