2.4.2 Cautions
CAUTION:
In all installations, use shielded cable exactly as shown, and ground only as
indicated. Significant problems may result from not following these guidelines.
Failure to follow the installation and wiring instructions provided in this manual
for power and ground connections, including the rating of the circuit breaker,
may lead to damage in the power input circuitry of the unit.
2.4.3 Cabling and Wiring
All wire shall be selected in accordance with the original aircraft manufacturer's Maintenance Instructions
or AC43.13-1B Change 1, Paragraphs 11-76 through 11-78. Unshielded wire types shall qualify to
MIL-W-22759 as specified in AC43.13-1B Change 1, Paragraphs 11-85, 11-86, and listed in Table 11-11.
For shielded wire applications, use Tefzel MIL-C-27500 shielded wire with solder sleeves (for shield
terminations) to make the most compact and easily terminated interconnect. Follow the connector map in
Section 2.7 as required.
Allow 3" from the end of the shielded wiring to the shield termination to allow the connector hood to be
easily installed. Reference the interconnect drawing in Section 2.7 for shield termination details. Note that
the hood is a "clamshell" hood, and is installed after the wiring is complete. Aircraft harnessing shall
permit the unit to be lowered from the panel for easy access to all side adjustments. Do NOT mount the
unit until all adjustments have been performed.
Maintain wire segregation and route wiring in accordance with the original aircraft manufacturers
Maintenance Instructions. Coaxial cables shall be routed separately from existing wire bundles in the
aircraft to minimize electromagnetic coupling effects.
Unless otherwise noted, all wiring shall be a minimum of 24 AWG, except power and ground lines, which
shall be a minimum of 22 AWG. Reference the Interconnect drawing for additional specifications. Check
that the ground connection is clean and well secured, and that it shares no path with any electrically noisy
aircraft accessories such as blowers, turn and bank instruments or similar loads. Power to this unit must
be supplied from a separate circuit breaker or fuse (fast blow), and not attached to any other circuit
breaker without additional protection. Verify that the selected circuit breaker size and wire gauge are
adequate for the installation using the techniques specified in AC43.13-1B Change 1, Paragraphs 11-47
through 11-51 and 11-66 through 11-69.
2.4.4 Mechanical Installation
The Model 211 can be mounted in any orientation.
2.4.5 Post Installation Checks
If any preset requires adjustment, ensure this is performed prior to flight, and that the unit and its mating
connector are properly secured. Make all required log book entries, electrical load, weight and balance
amendments and other paperwork as required by your local regulatory agency.
