Hi All.....I can't find it in any of the manuals for grundfos.....does anyone
know if the wiring to the float switch carries current or not. The float
switch has 3 #14AWG wires.......I need to add about 700 feet of wire from the
CU 200 controller to the storage tank.....I want to use #18AWG......is this
okay? most float switches I have used do not carry current they are
simply signal wires and can use very small gauge for long distance.....<br>
Anyone know off the top of their head?<br>
Thanks....<br clear=all>
