Default Source for strobe wire.

Hi everyone,

I am trying to locate a source for some 3 core shielded strobe wire to make up a couple of extensions. Have a Whelen system and looking for about 5' of cable for the extension.

Thanks in advance.

You might check your Whelan manual. My (non-Whelan) strobe pack specifically warned against splicing the 3 conductor cables. Not sure why that's so, but the Whelan's might have the same prohibition, or maybe not. Probably not the answer you were looking for, but hope it helps.

Thanks guys, really appreciate the info.

Its not a splice as such, just a longer run required than the cable I currently have. It will be a solid piece of cable from power pack to strobe.
