At last one of the aspects of this brewery build is behind me. The wiring is done!

I must take a moment to once again than my good friend Andy for talking me down from the edge when the first check of the wiring revealed that it was screwed up. He figured out that I had “zagged when I should have zigged”, as he put it. Basically I just wired the plug wrong and was running the power backward through the system. Have I mentioned that I hate electrical work? And plumbing. And roofing. And laying floor, in case any one was wondering.

Anyway after talking to him, the plug is rewired, the system is functional and I’m one step closer to brewing again. Wanna see it?

Proof that I’m no electrician:

The top boxes are the switches and the bottom an outlet individually controlled by the left top box switches. The right side is the master power and the light switch. The piping in the back houses the wiring up to the light:

A shot of the boxes and light housing. I’ll get better lights, those were just to test the power:

Nifty little bend in the wiring casing that was a pain in the ass to run the wiring through and get through the wood correctly:

The brewery mocked up:

A look underneath:

Still need to mount the brackets for the burner, hook up the water filter system, make tops for the kegs and finish putting the manifold together. Then it’s a full system test with H2O only and if everything works right, brew time!
