There is much to be said for neatness of assembly in electrical signal wiring. Even though the electrons dont care howneatly the wires are laid in place, human beings who must maintain the system certainly do. Not only are neatinstallations easier to navigate and troubleshoot, but they tend to inspire a similar standard of neatness when alterations aremade.

The following photographs illustrate excellent wiring practice. Study them carefully, and strive to emulate the same levelof professionalismin your own work!

Here we see 120 volt AC power distribution wiring. Note how the hoop-shaped jumper wires are all cut to (nearly) thesame length, and how each of the wire labels is oriented such that the printing is easy to read:

This next photograph shows a great way to terminate multi-conductor signal cable to terminal blocks. Each of the pairswas twisted together using a hand drill set to very slow speed. Note how the end of the cable is wrapped in a short section

of heat-shrink tubing for a neat appearance:
