wiring |

|
I am hooking up a few new accessories. |
|
I am trying to decide whether to mount their switches on my |
|
control panel or place their switches locally behind the |
|
accessories. I know centrally wiring everything to a panel looks |
|
neater and more professional, but that makes for a lot of wires |
|
and long runs going into and out of the panel. |
|
I do already have some trunk wires for items that are always on. |
|
Thanks for your suggestions. |

It depends on your preference. Do you want centralized control |
|
of your accessories, or do you like walking around your layout |
|
to operate each accessory? |
|
Large layouts like clubs have centralized control. |

I prefer to place the switch in close proximity to the |
|
accessories. |
