Hi. I want to use a car's temperature gauge and sender in order to measure the temperature of the water going through an installation at home. The reason is that if it works, this setup would be cheaper than anything else given the high costs of shipping to where I leave . The distance of the gauge from the sender will be 30 ft give or take. This would distort the indication of the gauge given that the gauge measures the resistance of the circuit between the sender , the wires and the gauge.
How can I calculate the AWG of the wires that I should use for this setup ?
