[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3528692, member: 5412"] I wish I had pics of the wax string laced and groomed cable bundles in our power plant. The IT and phone cabling guys area was a bundle of trash and wires running everywhere. How they figured out that mess I never knew. The control system wires came into the logic room in cable trays, organized by location and dropped into the cabinets groomed and laced. If a wire was on the outside left of a 100 wire bundle that was 6" in diameter, that wire would be in the same position at the end of the run 200' away until it was terminated. Laced all the way with wax string. Lost art in today's world when zip ties that rip your skin apart are in vogue. Control system wires always separate from power system wiring to prevent bleed over which can really mess with today's technology. [/QUOTE]
