Greetings All

I'm apprenticing for my A&P. I'm working on my first serious avionics project. My mentor said to figure this one out. I discovered that the radios, GNS530 and an SL30 both have 2 power sources. Each requiring two different amp draws. For example the GNS530 needs a 10 and a 5 amp breaker, The SL30 needs a 7 and a 5. Do I install 2 breakers for each unit? Most installations I have seen only have one breaker for each device.

What would be the proper way to handle this?



Regards

Russ
