Here's
a question: where should you source the power for your xfeed contactor coil,
left batt coil, right batt coil?
Since at least one side of the Contactor would have BUSS Power (other
wise there would be no need to actuate the contactor), you diode feed the +
from the each side of the contactor to the coil. Then supply a ground to
actuate. A fusable link in series with the diodes would provided adequate
circuit protection.
[r.t.s. ]
This is the way I wired my buss tie relay. It’s fed through isolation
diodes by both batteries. These are protected by 26 AWG fusible links. Power in
either system will allow you to close the cross-tie contactor. Works well in
testing; have not yet flown... L
