  • Page 10 To achieve the best results, the following notes should be considered: Low level signal wiring such as that associated with thermocouples, RTDs and current loops should always be kept separate from power and control output wiring. Signal input wiring should be twisted pairs/triplets etc. The conductors should be stranded rather than solid in construction.
