Wiring

When wiring sensors outdoors, DO NOT allow exposed wires
to run freely in open air; under such conditions, the Model
1104 is susceptible to serious damage during a lightning storm.
Depending upon the distance outdoor wiring must travel,
consideration should be given to the use of shielded wire inside
a metal conduit. Both shield and conduit should be connected
to an earth ground. This prevents stray voltage from entering
the unit.
