Netters; One of the best resources for information on electrical systems in aircraft is AeroElectric Connection, at http://www.aeroelectric.com/ . Bob Nuckolls has lots of good reference info and explanations to answer your questions on this stuff (DC vs. AC switch ratings, etc.). They also offer parts and pieces for sale, through B&C Aero, here: http://www.bandc.biz/parts.html and everything is aircraft grade.
If you study nothing else, Bob's info on grounding systems and theory are worth the reading... particularly in composite construction. It helps to get a grasp of how electrical noise originates and propagates, and how to properly ground your avionics and wiring to ensure that overcurrent protective devices function properly and noise does not hash up your avionics. Educate yourself while you sit by the fire waiting for Santa... download and print some of Bob's notes (or order "The Aeroelectric Connection", a manual for the homebuilder).
