My seat pan is elevated about 3/4 inch from the backside to allow for plumbing going fore and aft along the center console. I did not want too much plumbing in the center console so it could be properly serviced if needed. the wing wires come into the aircraft under the spar and are connected directly to the power supply. If it is ever necessary to remove a wing I would only have to cut about 8 tie wraps to do so. The choice is yours and it is not a major decision either way. As far as shielding goes; you could wrap the connection with aluminum foil and then wrap it with electrical tape. Overlap the foil wrap along the wire at least 4 diameters of the wire. That should do the trick.
