Title: Wing wiring
I spend quite a few hours here and there since March , doing quite a bit of research in terms of wiring, calculating wire length etc. I believe that from the front of the left wing tip to the firewall with a little bit of spare length will be somewhere between 32 and 34 feet, and 22 feet from the Pitot to the firewall. I am using white wire for the Pitot heat, 12 gauge, marked with heat shrink tape. The wire to the wingtip is three conductor shielded wire, as is the same with the wing mounted landing light. Are used black pipe as a conduit, using an adell clamp on rib 9. The fitting was quite tight, and the conduit isn't moving, I had to enlarge the hole in rib from the recommend size. I also installed the dynon lines to the angle of attack indicator, as well as the airspeed pitot. On rib number three, I used the grommets supplied by the dynon, and on rib four and five are used the three-quarter inch pex clamp [shark bite]. Rib 3 bracket was screwed using a stainless steel screw with the locknut, and on rib number five are used aircraft solid rivets to secure the bracket. I then squared the wing, as well as remove any twist (which wasn't present). My table is level and I no adjustment was needed. I clecoed the skin in all the front ribs, and I started match drilling the leading edge. I started in the middle, and work my way to the sides. Before I forget, I also deburred the top and bottom skins, as well as the stringers. It is important to line up the stringers to the wing skin holes on the outside, and then cut the stringers to length Outboard first, and then the Inboard
