AEROLED SunSpot Installation Question

Well Known Member
The kit from Vans for the Sun Spot has a manual instructions: OP-52A. For the RV-14 anyway.

The kit seem to want to you put in a ground loop. The section shows putting a ground on the spar near the light and then a ground at the fuselage. Or am I mistaken.
 
No ground loop.

If you are installing the Nav/Strobe light, it's ground connects up to the ground going to the fuselage on the back of the landing light.

If you are not installing the Nav/Strobe light, it instructs you to put a butt splice on this wire as it will not need to connect to anything. The butt splice just keeps the wire end from any inadvertent contact with the airframe.

You could just remove the wire instead of attaching the butt splice.
