Brief Description:  Panel wiring Part 7

Obviously there's a lot happening back here that is difficult to capture. I now understand why so many builders sites are lacking in detailed descriptions of what they are doing during this phase, so I hope this is helpful to someone in the future.On the left you can see progress on the power tray.Circuits are being added, wires routed through the 'streets' I've set up, and ending at intended component, or near where the component will be installed.

One of the things that restricts progress is iterative process of assessing what you need, placing the order, waiting for it to arrive, installing some of what you ordered, realizing you need something else, placing that order, waiting for the parts to arrive. I've placed at least three separate orders to Steinair, my preferred supplier since I started this. I like them because they are no-nonsense, great customer service when I have a question, and reasonable shipping costs. It would be so cool to have a parts list to follow.

In Image2, you're seeing the rear of the pilot-side switches. Keeping the switches close to each other saves real estate, but makes for challenging fumbling with wires and attach bolts.

When I can't work on one wiring job due to missing parts, I at least try and make something happen on other jobs. Image 3 is my progress on the intercom wires. They are unique in that the shield and ground must be electrically connected not only within each wire, but also between bundles. The whole mess must then be tied to a single ground wire, and all within the confines of25 pin D-sub connector back-shell (not shown yet). I'll show the final result elsewhere.
