Subject:      Re: Conduit for the bus.

I have had to run a number of sensor wires in Bugs and Bus' in the past. The best thing for me has been to use Serial cable. You can go with someple, five conductor, or all the way to sheilded 25 conductor cable. Most of these have tight bundles, good insulation, and can be gotten in 20 foot lengths for cheap. Plenty of room to add more conductors, or double a few up to handle more current.

PS. I poured the concrete slab for my VW shed this weekend. Even got a friendly wave from a Vanagon Clan in the biulding supply store parking lot. Got a good laugh out of the guy with the $35,000 Ram pickup, contruction and contrator grade, who could not load 10 foot landscape timber in the back. His jaw hung open while I loaded four sheets of plywood and some 12 and even 16 foot timber into the back and out the passenger window. And 10 bags of mulch. And 6 potted shrubs. And a wheelbarrow. He had such a hard time with those measly timbers. Should get a REAL truck! -- -- Chris Chubb (cchubb@ida.org) - (703)-845-2287 [Alexandria, VA, USA] ____________________________________________________________________ \All opinions expressed or implied may not reflect those of the \ \Institute for Defense Analyses, the US Government, or anyone else. \ --------------------------------------------------------------------
