Love this stuff from 8020, its flexible and easy to cut, and it's easier to pull cord in/out of the raceway than stiff raceway.

Yeh wire duct that is made by panduit is def the ticket ! It looks clean but u can just shove wires in there and pop the covers off and access any time !

Another thing that really helps is to replace long cords with short cords when possible. I replaced the 6 foot power cords on my Radion lights and long AquaBus cables with these 1 foot cords:

just get wider conduit than you think you need, that way you can fold over any extra wire length to hide it. assuming you can fit a wider raceway conduit in.

When running multiple wires thru conduit, put the wires you may need to pull out for stuff you maintain (like a pump you clean so often) on top layer (or in last). That way you don't have to struggle to remove the wire behind other wires and redo your runs each time.

Now that is genius. Fewer wires equals less mess to manage in the first place... thanks for sharing!

+1 This

Why doesn’t anyone show the mess of cords behind the scenes? It’s nice to see the neat side but that’s only part of the work!
