Re: Wire Management

To All,

I am not an Electrical Engineer. Mechanical Mentor, but Anderson Connectors from Power Werx helps to make for better connections. We use a lot of AMP Connectors also. A hard working neat Students can sure make a difference in the look and feel of the wiring on the Robot. Zip Wire also helps. If not familiar with this wire it is a red and black wire moled together. So, this reduces the number of wires you need to chase if there is a wrong connection. We have not found a good source for wire marking. Does anyone know of a source. We do not use Panduit. We can not afford the weight. We use Zip Ties by the dozens.

PS, Monta Viista HS recommended Power Werx and Zip Wire as a solution.
