By trade, I work with many electricians, and am learning quite a bit from these guys.... so this got me to thinking.. What would be a good way to design a similar bus bar in the case similar to the bus bar you would find in the neutral side of a circuit panel....

Im not thinking of having an exposed piece of metal, but something that the 4 pin molexes could be plugged into to keep the fan wiring neat and tidy... I want do design something with the power suppy molexes on one side, and the connectors for fans, pump, lights, etc on the other side...

Would having more than one 4 pin molex plugged into the bus connector create a wierd flow of power and cause an issue? Could more than one molex be plugged in from the power supply? Obviously the more you have plugged into a single molex, the more draw there is, and load on that single bar inside the PSU...

Does this idea make sense? This way when I open the back panel of the Antec P182, I can add or remove a fan or accessory without a mess of wires, y-adapters, etc...
 

That is exactly what I am looking for. I dont care if I buy or build it, I just want it. I wonder if they will sell just the connecter rail... hmm...



runner6m: I have seen that case, and its beautiful, but the rail that I am looking to build/buy will go between the back of the case and the door, so that design doesnt fit my needs. Thanks for the link though, its always fun to look at a beautiful case. That Silverstone is a piece of art.
