My electrical parts order arrived from SteinAir last night, so today I started installing block terminals on the end ribs. The Aveo lights have eight wires that need to connect to the wires in the wing that have already been pulled. By using the block terminals I could use the numbering system that I used on the root connectors. It also keeps things organized and makes it easier to disconnect the lights if the wingtip has to come off for some reason, a failed light maybe?
I used a jumper wire to an end slot on the terminal to ground to the brass attach bolt which grounds to the end rib for a local ground on each wing. The lights ground wires and the strobe power shield wire will ground at these two tabs (16 in the picture). The attach holes were drilled to #10 for the brass bolts and the holes were scuffed to remove the thin primer then alodined for electrical conductivity.
