How do you organize your electrical work?

[snakeblitz33]

Hello all,...
I hate the look of electrical cords everywhere underneath a tank. But - I always have to pull something to clean it or rearrange a pump here and there - What do you all do to manage the look of all those powercords under your tanks?
What do you do to manage all of the cords for like temp and pH monitoring on a controller??
I use zip ties here and there - but then like I said - I have to pull something out and clean it every now and then and have to cut all of the ties about once a month or more... How do you get your powercords out of the way?

I use ele. conduit hangers and leave the screw loose just tight enough to swivel it up or down. I also have several so I can wrap cords back and fourth to take up all the extra slack.

What about velcro zip ties.....

You can also reverse the zip tie so it will just pull out. You can use the plastic bread bag clips and label the wires.

I recently used my dynamo label maker to label each device from the seahorse tank. Best 15 minutes I ever spent. Usually I just have to do simple things like unplugging powerheads for feeding, or turning off the filter for cleaning, so labeled cords saves a bunch of hassle. I keep the wire bundle tied together with velcro strips; they're the easiest thing to use when you need to remove a component.

Thanks. Labels do make a lot of sense.
