Tips for Exceptional Wire Management

Be Consistent

This is one of the most overlooked aspects of great wire management. Consistency should apply to everything including the length of wire that is being used, the bend radius of the wire, the wire placement within the bundles and the label positions.

Don't Always Take the Shortest Path

When routing wires and trying to achieve a clean and organized look, it is important to not always take the shortest route to land the wires. For example, when wiring hardware on the door of an electrical enclosure it is important to consider all of the wires that are going to be at that location and bundle these wires whenever possible. Instead of just running the wires directly to the place that they need to be connected, route the wires in a way that will pass other devices or connection points near the wire and pick up any other wires along the way that are related to those other connection points.

Wire Tie Everything that is Not Concealed

When wiring in a control panel, the wires are often concealed by the wire ducting. However, there are times when wires are not concealed and are difficult to control in such a way that will result in a clean and organized look. To assist with this problem, it is important to use wire ties and wire tie anchors. Make sure that the same size wire tie and the same color is used throughout the install process.
