Electric Chase

Post by itisgood »

Where has most builders ran the electric wires from the rear and wings of your plane forward and then up to the panel?
I am building the RV7A and in the process of running the wiring. I think that I could run the wires from the center of the Spar forward on the floor under the Boost pump to the firewall up then forward to the panel.
Thanks
Dave

That is pretty much my plan. I don't want to have any visible wires in the cabin, so everything is going to go down the center tunnel.

+1 for me. Ran all my wires under the electric fuel pump.
