Equipment Location

The attitude indicator should be located within the aircraft in accordance with the following
considerations:
A. The indicator is ideally located in the instrument panel directly in line with the pilot's
normal line of sight. The "PULL TO CAGE" knob should be within easy reach.
I nstallations that result in viewing angles in excess of 30 degrees may reduce display
readability.
B. Compare the space requirements of the indicator with the installation area being
considered.
C. The power cable should not run adjacent to heaters, engine exhausts, or other heat
sources. Also, take care to route and tie the cable away from aircraft controls and
cables.
D. I f remote mounting the standby battery, the cable length from the battery to the unit
should be kept as short as practical using wire of 22 AWG minimum. 18 AWG wire is
recommended for cable runs over 50 feet. Remote mounting the battery in a location
subject to extreme temperature variations may dramatically shorten the emergency
operation time available for the attitude indicator as well as the expected battery
lifetime (Fig 2.7 and 2.8). For optimum battery performance it is recommended to
mount the battery in a temperature controlled section of the aircraft.
