Bob, so is there anything wrong with a grounding plan similar to the Z-15 for the Rv-10? It is simple enough to run that 2awg wire now, not so much later. For reference, the main 2awg wire running fr ...

So is running a 2 AWG cable from the aft mounted batteries on an RV 10 to a firewall stud a bad plan? Would a basic airframe ground be the better option,i.e. ground the batteries at their aft mounted ...
