REFLECTOR: Trim and speed brake motor amp draw

[Craig and Denise Woolston]

I looked at my load analysis and I have roll and pitch trim listed as 3 amps
and I put them under a 7amp breaker.  I have the speed brake listed as 3 amp
also under a 7amp breaker.

I am working on an electrical load analysis.

 

Does anybody know the actual draw of the speedbrake actuator, and or the
trim motor?

 

In my kit: one is made by Thomson, the other by Warner electric.  I see the
manual has them under a common CB rated at 10a?  On a purloined load
analysis from the www the Van's folks are using 1.5 for their flap
motors..generally speaking

 

Thanks,

Terry
