I agree with Al that you want as few as splices as possible. Every one is a failure point. Whatever ever method you choose make sure it is done properly.

Oh yes.... we do. In fact, this was the first year we didn't.
It's the result of having a sponsor (Ford) who donates some wire to us every year.... but it's primarily electrical panel wiring for Industrial panels. It's a pain to work with, but when you're living on a budget you learn not to complain
