<pre wrap="">I got a chance to poke around the Sabreliner a little bit with a
multimeter and a cable checker/sound'r-out'r and tried figuring out the
wire routing for cockpit power. I am a little perplexed...as far as I
can tell, none of the wires going to the battery master actually exit
the cockpit directly. Do aircraft normally have only a relay connected
to the battery master switch?</pre>

YES, lots of relays<br>
1. Battery <br>
2. External power<br>
3. Starter(s)<br>

<pre wrap=""> I would think that at least the common
lead should trace out to the wire going to the negative terminal of
the aircraft's batteries. I assume I need to dig in the forward
nose/avionics bay some more for relays or terminal blocks.
I want to use as much of the plane's original wiring as possible. Any
particular pointers you guys could offer in tracking down the power
delivery circuits to the cockpit? </pre>

LOL For G-d sakes why?? Or do you just like to whip yourself?<br>

<pre wrap="">The wiring diagram for the entire
plane from Sabreliner Corp is over $700.....a little more than I can
spend when I am trying to save up to build a shop for this thing this
summer!

oh, yes a bus should be a hunk of copper that is mounted by a few
standoffs. It should be drilled and taped. It could all so be a
terminal strip with jumpers. Do Not, think that you can use some
copper wire twisted together..( which I have seen done on some home
builds.. And wondered about the competency of the inspector!! )<br>
<br>
Just because this is a 'sim' you should use the same standards that
aircraft was built to.<br>
