Old wiring

[Joemas]

I am on a mission to clean up all the old wiring left in my dash compartment by previous owners and some unnecessary wires as well .
my question is this , Do the new blue seas DC panels have the extra wires that my panel does for the indicator lights .
seems the on line pics do not show any pics of the back of the panels . Just eliminating all those tiny wires on my 20 breakers would be a massive improvement.

Panels will only have the additional wiring if the switches are backlit. These folks will sell you parts or wire you a complete panel using Contura switches.

I used their blank panel and assembled my own.

I was referring to the indicator lights on the DC panel. Each breaker has additional ire’s to the indicator light to the right of the toggle ., as seen below

So its a power on indicator? If the panel description says it has power on indicators then it should be wired for that. The switches in my panel have the power on built into the switch so the only additional wiring is for the backlite which is wired to the nav lights.

Yes it comes pre-wired for the indicator lights - but only for the slots where there is a breaker supplied. You will have to add an indicator light at each "future" breaker slot if you do not initially order a full panel.
