Much of it is. In theory I could have a much neater system but hasn't worked out that way in practice.

I have several of 5v, 12v, 16v DC going through there. Typically anything low voltage DC I extend the wires through the conduit rather than having plugpack etc at the pier. There is 240v going through for a few things.

When I next pull them all out and re-do it I might reduce the number of 240v cables from 3 to 1 with adaptor at the pier, but it's debatable, it's nice not having plug packs and big bundles of 240v stuff at the base of the pier. Much nicer hidden under the cupboard on the side of the obs.
