Just an FYI, I got ahold of Brian and he graciously pointed me to this link for his AC43.13 electrical presentation:

Hi Brian,
Looks like the link is stale. Do you still have a copy of your presentation?

Thanks!
Stephen

Brian,
Thanks for your "condensed wiring" link. This will be very helpful soon, when I start wiring.

24” max, but this is not a “rule of thumb”. This is spelled out in AC43.13B, Paragraph 11-96(a). This is an essential resource when tackling one’s own aircraft wiring:

What’s the max length of wire you guys have without support in the middle? Is there a general rule to follow?
