I need some help!
I have a master solenoid, Cole Hersee 24143 which is 200A continuous rated which supplies the main connection of power from the battery to the rest of the plane.
the solenoid will switch on and off all day, however after flying (and an engine start) when the master is turned off the solenoid stays closed for anything up to a minute or so.
Am I likely to have contacts that are welding closed? Is there a residual magnetic force keeping it closed?
Have I done something wrong here?
Cheers
DB
