Brief Description: Made a fat wire support bracket for the Aux batter
Spent some time Sunday trying to come up with some way to support the fat wires going from the Aux contactor on the cockpit side of the FW to the Aux battery and Forest-of-tabs ground plate. A nutplate in the FW recess that holds the top of the tunnel cover provided a hold point for two adel clamps that would support the Aux battery positive cable and the negative cable and it was already there.
I then finally decided that one bolt that holds the right side of the Main battery box through the FW could also hold a small bracket that would hold an adel clamp to support the cable terminal attachment to the Aux contactor bat terminal. The only problem was that I had to fabricate the bracket, which I did using some 0.062 thick scrap aluminum. It took about an hour and a half to cut, bend, drill, rivet a nutplate, deburr, scuff, and prime the bracket. That's after an hour of sizing, then resizing a couple of times to get it just right. That was enough for me on a hot Sunday afternoon.
