 Posted: Tue Apr 03, 2007 2:46 am Post subject: fuse conduit anchor points |
 |
|
I'm running ~1.1" conduit in the beneath the rear seats and baggage floors on
the outboard walls as several other folks have done. Two custom clamps/brackets
at the tailcone side securely hold the conduit exit points. The entry next to
the rear seats is pretty snug (RTV?).
What's acceptable practice to secure the slack middle points to the bulkheads?
Do they make adel clamps in really big sizes? Once the floors get sealed up
it's going to be difficult to change anything in the middle...
Thanks in advance for any input.
Regards,
Jay

I used the stick on tie wrap holders. First I cleaned the area real good and
then used E6000 to make sure they stay stuck. (photo attached)

You need at least one more support for the wiring.
You bolt an adel clamp to one of the baggage compartment ribs to secure the wires or make an angle from sheet stock , drill a 3/4inch hole on one leg of the angle and put a snap bushing in it then rivet the angle to one of the ribs in the baggage compartment.

Quick question to everyone regarding this. These and the other solutions that have been discussed are for running unprotected wires through the lighting holes. My question is why make it so complicated, we have installed conduit, which will protect the insulation on the wires, we have already edge finished the lighting holes, so why not run the conduit through the lighting holes and secure it with lock wire, IE drill a small hole below the opening, take a length of safety wire and lock the conduit in place?
Is this bad thinking, or are we just trying to make it more complex and spend allot of money on cool fasteners?

Dan:
If you are going to wire tie a wire or conduit to a lightening hole, a good safeguard is to install another wite tie around the first tie (perpendicular to it), and between the wire and the aluminium. This creates an anti-chaffe buffer between.

I have heard and used that method before on wiring, but when using the conduit with insulated wire inside isn't that enough? How many layers do you need?
