I’ve been working on running a few final power circuits and additional low voltage wiring before the drywall goes on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The center channel and subwoofer will be in the wall above and below the TV respectively, with the other 4 speakers in the ceiling in front of the TV.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I decided at the last-minute to add a TV to the lobby with in-wall\/ceiling 5.1 surround sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
There will be a pass-through on the cover to let wires reach the TV as well as another pass-through on the machine room just behind to let wires reach a cable ladder system.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I installed a box to handle all the wires behind the TV, and also serve as a junction for the speaker wires and a hiding spot for a compact UPS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
The access point can run over PoE, but not at the highest speeds, so I opted to add an outlet.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I also moved the small plastic low voltage box I had in the machine room to the ceiling to house a WiFi access point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
The plastic box ensures the WiFi signal is unimpeded.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I didn’t want the box to leak air into the ceiling bays, so I closed up the back of the framing with some rigid foam and used spray foam to seal it all up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
8 of the 24 ethernet lines jump over to boxes on the wall, allowing me to patch in a rack of equipment in the room.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I installed a new, much larger, metal low-voltage box in the machine room and wired up all the ethernet runs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
I tested the ERV controller with the transformer, relay, power distribution and junction DIN-rail modules I installed.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I also replaced a smaller HVAC control box in the attic with a larger one and ran extra control lines to the thermostat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
