I like the artwork of the squared off wires but I prefer to run them in a sweeping fashion so the electricity flows more smoothly. Plus, it's faster and I am generally under the gun, trying to stay ahead of inspectors who may show up at any moment.

Yeah, they are as neat as they need to be. :cool: I dislike zip ties in panels, I have used them very seldom to keep the ugly wire nut bunches together, and keep the feeders from pushing outward in the pics, otherwise.. no need for zip ties, twisted grounds... etc.

TO add... Usually by the time I get all the wires back into the panel, my back is starting to hurt, so I prefer the make up to go quickly as possible.

I am suprised noone caught what appears to be code violation in the meter combo pic.:D

Why would you waste that much time?

I'm hesitant to even post one of mine now.


I already see things in that pic that I don't like.


For starters, all the grounding conductors aren't the exact same length past the screw . . . . .


I wish I were joking.

Same here. Like Rocky said when asked about investing in condominiums: "I never use 'em."

Not a zip in the box, and it really takes no longer to do it neatly enough:

I always route the EGC's to the back of the box and land them first, then the grounded conductors, then route and land the line wires last.
