Fun with wiring

Oh, this is fun. I spent some time in the rf box this morning, just poking about the 11M wiring cabinet, getting a sense of how the switch 89 readback is wired and what wire need to be added to the newly installed Allen-Bradley chassis. The clarity is such a treat after some mind boggling time trying to figure out why somebody would want to route those wires in a maze-like fashion to achieve the end result of connecting 2 points.

Vick, a brilliant field engineer who has contributed his significant engineering skills to the wiring of the Allen-Bradley chassis, will help me to add the extra wire to the chassis; he has already pointed out the missing return wire I overlooked.
