What happens here

Connect the electrical cables from the solar panel to the aeration pump system. To keep the cables tidy and secure, use zip ties to fasten them along the galvanized steel post. Trim any excess zip tie material flush using a DataShark zip tie gun to prevent sharp edges. The pump box should be elevated on cinder blocks to prevent direct contact with the ground, reducing the risk of water damage and prolonging its lifespan.

Goal: Connect the solar panel to the pump system and secure the pump box.
