CAT5E is rf signal, and the freq of your 50 hertz stuff :lol: is 'way too low to interfere anyway . Heat induction is another story if you are pulling some really big amps thru the 240volt stuff . . but you gotta be upwards of 200 amps or more . I still wonder about using 240volt in a household for common things like toasters and lightbulbs . . . seems a little overkill to me . . . but I am just used to 120v/60Hz household power ratings and leaving the 240v stuff for heavy appliances, air conditioning and arcwelding and such . 240 seems a little dangerous for small kids and animals who might chew a wire to a lamp or a tv . Asking here: do you get your 240 thru 2 legs or on a single leg? We get two 120 legs (A&B) and send them as a single pair to things that need 240v . |
