Install and Wire Your Module Chapter 2

IMPORTANT

Cabling used with the 2080-TC2/RTD2 modules have to be shielded
twisted cores with the shield wire shorted to chassis ground at controller
end. It is advisable to use 22 AWG wires to connect the sensors to the
module. Use sensors dipped in oil-filled thermowells for stable and
uniform readings. Recommended cable type: Alpha wire P/N 5471C.

Performance is dependent on the application. For better noise immunity,
cable length should ideally be less than 10 m because the plug-ins are
non-isolated. For longer cable length requirements, use the 2085
expansion I/O modules instead.
