Process Summary
Our goal:
The wiring is the nerve center of the entire layout. Everything from trains, animations to street lights is connected to the system depending upon what the client’s need.
What we do:
Our electricians will begin the process by setting a color code for all the main electrical buses. For example, red/white would be track power; blue/white would be building lights and yellow/white would be accessories. After which they would simply begin the physical labor of running all the appropriate wires to their respected locations. All of this depends on the size and style of the layout that being wired.
Tools we use:
Solder station, wiring cutter, wire stripers, etc.
