We
mentioned in a previous article that we've
decided to utilize a Ron Francis' Wire Works Advantage
main panel and Telorvek injection panel system as the heart of
our electrical system. These products, along with all the Wire
Works products, share both innovation and quality. These are solid,
well engineered pieces. Editor's revision (Nov.7, 2003):
Telorvek is now manufacured and supplied by The Detail Zone of
Wilmington, Delaware.
The Advantage
panel is a very capable performer, providing for all your circuits
and accessories. When supplied in kit form for your car, you get
everything you need: the panel, wire, switches (lights, ignition),
gauge wiring and super-detailed instructions.

The
panel (or terminal block) is "three sided" which allows
for installation in tight situations. The terminals are colour keyed
to the wire insulation. Neat.

The Telorvek
panel acts as a link between the "wiring harness" (Wire
Works wires) and the computer. As mentioned in the earlier article,
our plan is to mount both panels in the trunk. This won't be a
problem as the Advantage panel can be supplied with extra long
wire and the Telorvek panel comes with 20 ft. of wire for each
sensor.
Like the
Advantage panel, the wire is printed every 5 inches with the name
of the destination location and is colour coded.

route to various sensors and other computer terminations.
Once again, it's hard to go wrong when the instructions
are followed. |

This
is excerpted from a page in the Telorvek instruction guide.
It illustrates the level of detail associated with the kit. With
bag i.d.'s
and colour coding, all that's required is the appropriate amount
of time.
The Advantage panel instructions have the same level of detail.
Nothing is left to chance in the Wire Works documentation.
