You’ll note from the install manual is specifically calls out a 2 conductor shielded wire and a 3 conductor shielded wire (one of each) run to the GMU. This is the simplest and cleanest way to do the install as well…the wires are already twisted, already shielded and can be run together. Look at page 24-5 in the install manual (rev. AA) for details. The power, Ground and RS-232 share the three conductor wire with the shield getting sunk to the signal ground on the GMU. I’d recommend just following that install guide….after hundreds of these we’ve wired this way there hasn’t been any issues yet.

Agreed. I've got a B(at)%%-load of 3-conductor
shielded. You can use it for both the 2 and
3-conductor pathways . . . just ignore one
wire in the bundle.
How much do you need to make the necessary
runs?
