Ok looking for critique from the 2016 apex users. I have limited space in the dry section of the cabinet. The boards are held in place with door magnets so no problem for access. They also form a corner as shown in unlabeled picture. Anyone see any wiring problems? Need more holes? Any advice before I start drilling and attaching to board ie run all wires and double check length?
Btw how long is the power cord to the power bar?
Thanks all for the info

FYI Neptune offers templates for their new Apex, Eb832 and modules at the bottom of the Documentation page

Although I don't have the new Apex, I'm thinking you're going to end up wanting addition pass-through's near your powerbar. You'll be surprised how much room 6-8 cords take up. You'll be fighting them with just the one grommet hole. My $.02 anyway.
 
That is very well laid out

Maybe even do a slot. I do like the neatness of the holes though. Thanks for the input. Probably saved me a lot of cussing
