I am in the process of correcting my Aeroled strobe wiring. Originally, it was grounded to the airframe causing headset noise. After corresponding with Aeroled, they recommend grounding each strobe at the main ground block. They also recommend grounding the wire shielding to the frame of each light, and then grounding the shields at the main ground block. The wing tip lights were fairly straight forward. The tail strobe is causing me problems. I ran the strobe ground to the main ground block, but I can not figure out a good way to ground the shield to the strobe frame. The mounting location in the fiberglass fairing doesn't present an easy solution. I thought I could put a ring terminal behind the top screw, but that wont allow the tail of the light to fit in the mounting hole. I bought a longer mounting screw thinking I could put a nut on the back. The fairing is too narrow at the top to allow the nut.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how I might ground the wire shield to the strobe frame? Your help is appreciated.
