      Tech support never got back to me on a question.

      My panel is in side my house, but it feeds though a main out on the pole. On that main is my 2 legs for my outside AC. But that over 20′ away. Didn’t want to buy a 2nd unit just for the 2 legs. But wanted the outside AC on my report.

      So I tried something. Order a set of male and female 2.5mm head phone jack leads of Amazon. Then use some 5 wire thermostat wire to make up the 20′ I need. Match color to leads and use wire nuts.

      Been running good.

      We do not sell extension cables for our sensors, but they can be extended with standard audio extension cables. We recommend staying under 20ft in length to prevent any loss in reading accuracy.
      200A (3.5mm jacks) extensions
      50A (2.5mm jacks) extensions

      More information
