CT Wiring Extensions

Post by AndySh » Tue Feb 14, 2012 11:45 am

Anyone got any advice on any inductive coupling issues with the CT wires?

I've got a 100A subpanel located about 40' from the main panel, and I'm trying to figure out how to run CT wire extensions from the subpanel over to the main panel. I'm planning on running CAT6S wire, but my easiest wire run lies right alongside the AC feed line.

Should I be worried about coupling between the two?

We can't say for sure because there's too many unknown variables, but our guess is it should work OK since the cable is shielded.
