Re: Electrical Schematic/ Wiring diagram

We made a electrical diagram last year..........it rocked.......we also made a point to make it look exactly like it was on the robot (instead of just making it look close). Our wiring was so organized it was NICE .

I believe that every wire should be labeled to what it goes to, and also all the wires should be organized neatly. Like in one line with wires coming out where they need to.

I totally disagree with just wiring a robot a not even organizing the wires and leaving them hang. First of all it causes hazards, and second of all it is very hard to fix something electrical in a rush.
