John, I don't see any problem with using the aircraft battery for testing
|
purposes. I would however, always disconnect the grounding on the battery
until you were ready to make a test and I always have an ampere meter in
series with the battery so that I can tell which way the current is going
and just how much. Most circuits won't really draw much current and on a
+ or - 60 Amp. meter won't show any current which is ok as long as the
light or radio works. You can just use a multimeter (ohm meter) on a
suitable scale to check the circuits. On the other hand I know that there
are lots of people who don't ever use electrical circuits and since you ask
the question I expect it would be a good idea to have some help from a
tinkterer who knows all of the rules of electricity. Remember to keep one
hand in your pocket when in a high voltage area. Best wishes. Cleone

starting to put together my electrical system. when
testing the lights and other electrical componets,
what should i use as a power source. i was thinking
of buying my aircraft battery now and using it until i
am ready to put it in the aircraft. will this damage
it and or is it powerful enough for testing purposes.
i can recharge it anytime but perhaps using it for
testing is a bad idea any recommendations would be
helpful. thanks in advance
