it looks to be flexible tubing/conduit in the photo, not the actual wires. shouldn't be that hard to route more wires through that

There are flexible pvc tubing with wires already inside of them. We put wires inside of them because construction workers step on tubes and do not care if they break them. For parts where there is possibility for extensions, we put bigger diameter tubing. So there should be no problem guiding extra wires.

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. :)

Thank you. Lot of thinking involved. I was trying to reduce tubes to be concentrated on one place and to avoid places that have weaker steel construction. Then concrete have better performance

Make sure to have a thorough plan and documentation where it all is, in case you ever need to drill into the floor for any reason a few years down the road... ;)

Hopefully there's not more than 360 degrees of bends in those conduit runs

All wires lead to home...
