You're testing our calculation capabilities? Should be 336 meters.

Without wishing to tamper with my own LS5 cables......
Are the individual cores stranded if so how many strands?
This could work out to zillions of MTRS...!!!

LS5 is a 28 core version of LS1. 3m pair, signal and return = 336m

That's where I have my information from, too. By the way the site looks like it won't take long anymore with the restart of NVA!?Quarknosis wrote: ↑Sun Aug 25, 2019 2:58 pm+1Hannes-Gregor wrote: ↑Sun Aug 25, 2019 1:09 pm You're testing our calculation capabilities? Should be 336 meters.

oh no miss information...

NVA cable has a totally different idea and construction. The easiest way of thinking about about NVA cable is it a series of insulated single core speaker cables run in parallel within a expandable sleeve. Two different type cores are used depending on the cable and the core number goes up. From 8 cores in LS1 to 32 in LS5 to 156 cores in TSCS.

Good news, all the best! Regarding the quiz I try the 24 and stop getting completely confused with obscure AWG tables.savvypaul wrote: ↑Sun Aug 25, 2019 3:21 pmCorrect, again.
