3.6.4 TRANSCEIVER ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

Wiring must be done in accordance with FAA AC43.13-1B, or most current revision.
A crimp tool meeting Mil Spec M22520/2-01 and a positioner are required to ensure
consistent, reliable crimp contact connections for the 62-pin D Subminiature
connector. A 2 amp pull able Circuit Breaker is required for external protection of
the Sky Connect Transceiver. All wiring is 18-22AWG, and should use Mil Spec
22759/16 or 27500/18 wire or wire deemed appropriate to the aircraft type by the
governing aviation regulatory agency. See the appropriate following Sections for
the schematics of your system for wiring examples.
See Table 1 above for recommendations of discreet switches to be installed when
not installing a Sky Connect control head with internal switches.
Note: Sky Connect telephony systems are generally considered non-essential and
should be treated as such when selecting the appropriate bus for power. The
system should be placed behind a nonessential bus. However if the mission of the
aircraft deems the Sky Connect System safety sensitive, the essential buss may be
used. An electrical load analysis may be required when doing so.
