Fred et al:
I would agree. When used with decent power cables, good connectors
properly applied and overall length of 4 ft or so, remote sensing will
likely bring more issues to the table than necessary. Additional wiring,
additional connectors and filtering required to keep RF out and the
overall system stable.
Now if one has to run DC power 20 to 30 ft then remote sensing is most
likely necessary.

Joe, I am familiar with Kelvin sensing, otherwise known as 4 wire or remote
sensing. Its advantages are probably outweighed by the risks of misconnecting and
filtering needed for RF environments. With <4 feet of 10 ga wire I don't see
significant voltage drops. I prefer KISS.
