Richie that actually looks nice. I have two bus bars by my transformer that I could replace with that and clean the wires up a bit.
I did it sloppy and just looped the wire around the terminals but I plan on getting a crimper and some connectors to clean it up a bit. I like having the terminal blocks too. I can fit the short lead wires from the building to the block and then run a lead from that back to the bus bars.
the main thing was it was kind of fun doing and odds are my son will know more about basic wiring by the time he’s six than I did at 26

IMHO, it can be a much cleaner looking installation, especially using red and blue U-shaped crimps. Also, if you get the 12 port and then run out of ports, rather than buy the more expensive 24 port, you can just get another cheaper 12 port and use one of the original 12 ports to jumper over to the red and black terminals on the new 12 port one. You lose a port, but it may be worthwhile.
