I have 3 metal 500x600 boxes in node zero. Middle box has almost nothing
but DIN mounted
connectors. Top half of all connectors go out to the lights (about 80 of
them) and the
bottom half of the connectors go to the left or right box where the dimmers
are. Each
channel goes through an MCB as well (I have 56 channels)

My cbus cat5 is mostly home run - so I have about 20 cat5 terminated in a
separate box.

I'm sure a sparky would have done the job much faster than me, but at least
it all works!

I only have one Neo - the rest are E2000. I think I need a little more in
scenes/logic
than can be done with what I have.
