Quote: | Comments/Questions: Bob - What is the latest wisdom on the crowbar and b-lead
disconnect for the IR alternators? I have read all the Matronics threads,
and it seems that you have withdrawn the Z-24 diagram.

Keep up the good work.

Thank you sir for the kind words and validation of
my efforts.
Here's some background:

Here's the Z-24 replacement in the works . . .
http://aeroelectric.com/articles/Adapting_IR_Alternators_to_Aircraft.pdf
in the interim, Z-24 is entirely suited to the task as
long as the pilot is aware that the alternator should not
be turned off while under load except when it's mis-behaving
or there is possibility of electrically generated smoke
in the cockpit.
When AEC9004 becomes available, it will drop neatly into
the spot where the crowbar module is used and will allow
any time, any conditions, damage free control of the
stock, automotive IR alternator.
Holler if I can help!
