Outstanding. I have used many of the techniques shown at church and home. Have not used snakes or power cables. As for "rope ties", use longer lengths of paracord and burn the ends to keep from unraveling. Take care.
Even if it was a rope you don't want a tangled rope when you're repelling or climbing and you don't want knots that can distort the rope and break or reduce its strength.
Are you thinking for identification or bundling? Zip ties tend to get over cinched. And they leave a nice Point when they're not cut flat. They're also more of a permanent install method. I have seen a couple people who will put a colored zip tie on their cords to identify. but just about every extension cord comes with a black zip tie on it with the annoying 5 foot safety tag so I don't know why this guy thought he should use black.
No. But something I can point you to is car wrapping vinyl. Have strips of varying lengths (for varying cable thicknesses) plotted out on different colored sheets. There are companies that let you upload a file and they plot it and ship it to you. Then, you wrap a strip around each end of your cable, making sure that the cable is clean and that both ends of the strip overlap. This last bit is very important - the overlap is where this method gets its power to stay on for years and years. The best thing about it: it doesn't leave sticky residue like e-tape and unlike methods that utilise clear heatshrink over the marking to make sure it lasts, it's quick to apply, especially when it comes to cables that have already been terminated.

I prefer using a half 8 for wrapping feeder, especially when its very long runs. Great video
Useful, helpful video! Thank You very much.
Try a Surgeon's Knot on the tie line (it's one more loop than an Overhand). @5:45
Nice communicator!! Nice teacher 😊

What about using colored zip ties instead of electrical tape?
No No No Zip ties damage cables obi wan
