the electrical harness system is configured for routing a harness between a rotor yoke and a rotor blade . a recess in an inboard cap member is configured to house a connector and an associated harness . as the recess extends along a radial path in the chordwise direction of the rotor blade , the harness is configured to lie within the recess . operationally induced centrifugal forces promote positioning the slack of harness within the recess , while the slack in the harness remains available for relative dynamic movements between the rotor blade and the rotor yoke . such a routing of the harness reduces aerodynamic drag and minimizes damage that could otherwise occur to the harness .
