splicing wires

May 28, 2005 1 Replies

I am splicing a switch into a wire in that sends pulsed speed signals in my car. I used AWG 24 telephone wire, solid core. Since cars vibrate, I used 2 wire conductors for each end of the switch.



Would I be better off re-wiring using a single stranded wire rather than 2 solid wires? Any issues in using 2 wires in each direction? Should I worry about any signal loss issues?



I don't think using two wires will help avoid a failure.

That would be my choice.

Not that I can think of at the low frequencies you are talking about.

Probably not for low frequencies you are talking about.
