Bob,

I am laying out my RV-10 wiring based on the Z-13/8 Q.  My battery 

is behind the bagage area as is my master contactor. Z-13/8 Q shows 

the SD-8 going to the battery side of the contactor. My battery bus 

will be next to the battery and I will run the e-bus supply wire 

from there foward to the panel.

  Question: Instead of running another wire all the way back to the 

 master contactor from the SD-8 could I just run from the SD-8 to 

 the E-bus which is under the panel?

With this arrangment I would activate e-buss when needed and then 

sd-8, otherwise sd-8 would be dormant and only supply power when 

e-buss is activated.


	


      I've pondered this a bit . . . I think you will

      be okay with that modification.

I had one other thought...since I had the understanding that it would not be 

good to run an alternator without the battery in line I would use a double 

pole switch which would activate the e-bus alternate feed and alternator at 

the same time thereby I would never have the chance to turn the alternator 

(SD- on without the e-bus on. Is this wise (correct).

Thanks

Chris
