26 March 2009204 viewsThis shot is Sparkie's right hand man installing a section of the wireway metal chase we decided to use instead of the standard conduit and boxes. This chase will join all areas of the ceiling area together to allow cables to be pulled to any conduit stubs from the main load center as well as travel to other points.pklongball

23 March 2009195 viewsThe start of the electrics includes switch boxes. In this case 4 boxes near the front door to control lights in the house and on the veranda and also the car parking area. You can see the traditional method of mounting the box on a horizontal plane.pklongball

26 March 2009189 viewsHere we have the start of installing the wireway. We are using 2 x 4 by 2 meter sections. These are connected to each other as needed to form the raceway for all the power cabling. Various hand and electric tools are used in the process of assembling the sections.pklongball

28 March 2009189 viewsToday the main panel is installed and all the conduits are in place both up to the raceway for the feeder cables and down under the floor for the main supply cables and the feeders to and from the car park panel. We have added a small box next to the panel that will have the RG 6U cables (TV & True) and telephone cables in and out.pklongball

26 March 2009188 viewsAnd here we have a section that is ready for the cables. 4 conduits were bent using a heat gun,,,yes I said heat gun not lighter or some sort of fire on a stick, then attached to holes cut into the bottom of the channel. And the use of the connector and bushings is another requirementpklongball
