C40/DVM Remote 180' [RE-wrenches]

I have run e-meters to over 200' using twisted pair cable in the 18 ga.
range. I did pair the conductors to use 2 of each and still keep them as a
twisted pair.

Seemed to work fine, been 2 years so far with no problems. Don't see how it
would work any differently with the C40 meter.

Have a great holiday!

Hi David,

We think it will work but aren't able to guarantee it will work to 180'
as I'm unable to find any reports internally that folks have run the
cable that far with either a success or a failure.

Please let me know what happens.

Best,

Pagan
