In preparation to automate my pool shed, I want to run wires from house to the pool shed (about 150 foot total). I want to connect 1 or 2 Secu16 units as well as a one wire network extension for a TEMP08.
If I do this I will be set to control swimming pool, watering of garden, floodlights, etc.
I have discussed burying a line and use of PVC but I am wondering if anyone sees a problem with my recent plan which would involve a lot less effort.
There is a phone line going about 75 feet from house to the pool. I am not sure what you call the wiring but it is a four wire phone line covered with grease and encased within a black sheath. I would like to extend that wiring to the pool shed and connect up more ADICON modules (Secu16) and add some one-wire sensors.
So, here are my questions:
<UL TYPE=SQUARE>
<LI>Will the wiring be OK for the application I describe?
<LI>If so, how should I splice the existing wire so that it remains watertight?
<LI>I would like to run the line extension alongside the pool fence as this would ensure that the line is more protected however I have wiring for Malibu lights that I do not want to interfere with the wiring for the ADICON/TEMP08. Is there a potential problem here?[/list]
