Mooney SBM20-245B is a modification kit for Mooney M20M aircraft electrical systems. It rewires the 24-volt system to enable the overvoltage warning light in the annunciator panel to function, alerting pilots to potential alternator issues. The kit includes detailed instructions and necessary parts like wires, wire caps, and a 2-amp circuit breaker. Installation requires disconnecting voltage regulators, removing the glareshield, and routing wires. Once installed, the modification enhances safety by providing a visual indication of alternator overvoltage conditions.
