Hi 'LectroFolks,
I'm looking for a source for multiconductor cable to be used for installing Whelen strobes. I need the cable to go from the power supply to the strobe units/heads, not the power lead.
The current "installation" kit I had (and used on another airplane) uses a Belden cable consisting of 3 - 16ga. conductors with a shield, insulated with (I think) some kind of rubber/vinyl. I don't think it's teflon.
I would like to find some additional cable without buying another seriously overpriced "installation kit" which includes connectors I already have.
I probably need about 50 feet, but I'd buy more if it's semi-reasonable, (up to 100').
Does anyone know where I can find this kind of cable? The 16 ga. spec is probably seriously overdone, since the high amperage load is extremely intermittent, but that's what Whelen uses, and this particular installation is going into a certified Cessna. (I used the other cable kit in my Glasair.)
I've looked at SteinAir, and they don't have anything in cable bigger than 20 gage, and are really short on multi-conductor stuff.
Thanks,
Ron Cox

Ron,
Check http://strobeguy.safeshopper.com/32/1922.htm?248 and see if this will do the trick. Give him a call first to make sure the wire gauge is what you need.
