One of previous posts recommended using speaker wire for the remote connection of the KPA-1500 amplifier to the KPA-1500 power supply.
Speaker wire is made for speaker systems. Although it may look like "lamp cord" it is not listed for use to wire up a lamp. You should buy rated "lamp cord" for that purpose. I think the same applies for dc wiring. I am not the code inspector for anyone, so do what you want, but if I had a long remote power supply feed, it would be wired with the proper size cable rated for the purpose. I suppose one idea could be to splice the larger size cable required for the longer distance to the Elecraft supplied cable at the termination end of the amplifier. The power supply protection protects the smaller Elecraft wire as designed, so going back to it at the very end is not an issue. -- Sent from: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/ ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
