Bullitthead Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 I think it is located outside of the cockpit and operated by the ground crew.
bart Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Is the electrical system always on? On the first step in the start up checklist where you advance the throttle until the low fuel pressure light and the u/c light illuminates, the throttle is hitting a toggle switch on the throttle quadrant and pushing it forward turning those lights on. You can click on this switch after shut down and this will switch it to the off position and kill the lights and I assume turn the battery off? Anyway check your throttle quadrant and you should see the switch at the base of the lever about half way along its travel.

edineygomes Posted December 18, 2016 Author Posted December 18, 2016 When entering the cockpit, the voltmeter already shows 14 volts without triggering the switch
r4y30n Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 Short answer is that there is no battery switch, it's live all the time. Last post on this thread is from a living encyclopedia of Spitfire knowledge (Killratio). https://www.a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=23558
