Impact of cabeling on electronics panel

I would like to know if I only have to focus on loose cables and srcews on the print head and all the profiles or if I also need to focus on the cabeling and mounting of the parts in the electronics bay? Can they also have an impact on the shaper and belt tension graphs… and are the finally affecting the print quality?

The cables at the controller/pi/psu will not have a major effect on the quality of your prints. However, they are still subject to vibration and shaking as the printer works. This means that over time loose wire can wear through their insulation where they contact each other and possibly cause short circuits in the future. That is why all cabling should be secured where possible when any type of repetitive motion is possible.
