Re: The importance of clean wiring

Clean wiring is also important to ease replacement of parts on your electronics board.

In 2004, our robot burnt out a speed controller and broke our breaker panel. Due to jumbled wiring, the breaker panel and speed controller are now hanging in mid-air, being supported only by the wires.

Clean wiring also helps during competition to replace broken or loose connections quickly between matches.
