Wiring for a Viking Part 5
The Viking suggested wiring of the engine :
Positive Side:
1) Install a #6 cable from each battery positive to the BAT side of each contactor. 2) Install a #6 cable between one contactor output and the starter 3) Install a #8 cable between one contactor output and alternator terminal, through a 60A fuse 4) Install a #6 cable between the two contactor output studs.
Because of the long run to the engine on a SeaRey, any #8 was changed to a #6.
I ran two 6awg from the front to the engine area. One from the Dynon Shunt go to the Alternator.
And one from the left battery contactor to the Starter.
I covered the two 6awg wires with a loom and strapped it to the left side lower cockpit tube.
