Brief Description:  Electrical.

I purchased a 12V 18AH battery today to power the electrical system so I could test the components.
I connected the battery relay ( aka Master Relay ), then to the VPX and starter relay.
VPX powered up straight away, a blinking orange light indicated all is good.
I connected the VPX to my laptop computer and indications are that everything is OK.
The starter switch activated the starter relay, I could hear it engage.
The master relay gets quite hot, which is quite normal from what I have read.
I tested the nav, strobe, landing, taxi and beacon lights.
They all work when turned on at the panel switch, so VPX is doing it's job.
The avionic switch turned the radio on, which it should. ( thank heavens )
I have started to get quotes for the rest of the avionics.
I knew this was coming, but "crickey" it is a very expensive part of the build.
Once I have the remainder of the avionics I will be able to test all the systems before they are installed into the aircraft.( much easier to trace and fix issues on the test bench ).
