can be easily operated.
The electrical system includes a l4 volt 60 ampere alternator, voltage regulator,
overvoltage relay, battery contactor and a standard l2 volt 25 ampere hour or an optional l2
volt 35 ampere hour battery. The battery is mounted in a thermoplastic box located
immediately aft of the main spar on the right side of the fuselage below the rear passengers seat.
The voltage regulator and overvoltage relay are located on the forward left side of the fuselage
behind the instrument panel.
Electrical switches are located on the right center instrument panel, and the circuit
breakers are located on the lower right instrument panel. A rheostat switch on the left side of
the switch panel cotrtrols the optional navigation lights and the radio lights. A similar switch on
the right side of the switch panel controls and dims the optional panel lights. The master switch,
anti-collision light, landing light and fuel pump are also located on the switch panel and are
controlled by rocker tvpe switches.
