What is the highest temperature tht the cables can withstand?

Sophie. The web site and my owners manual say the can measure up 716 degrees F. I hope this helps. They also say the the max temp the display will show is 572 degrees F.

Yes. I live in Ohio and these cables have been able to with stand the winter here.

They would be too hot. You can get the ones you need for the fiber optic tree at Walmart.

I bought my heating cable at the beginning of last winter. I has worked fine for me. I used my heating cable inside of a building where it was not exposed to the weather other than low temperatures. I guess the lowest temp. to have been around -10 degrees.

Depends on the length. Use the heaviest and shortest cables possible, and use 100% copper cable (beware that "copper-clad" is not the same thing). That will insure that your cables are not the limiting factor in your system.

Yes... the specs say do not exceed 350F for the probe itself... the problem is that the probe is ok beyond that, but the rubber insulation on the wire melts above 400F as I found out the hard way. Since the probe is not detachable from the wire I do not exceed 350F with the new probe I had to buy.

I live in Arizona where it reaches above 110 outside, and I havn't had any problems with these speakers. As far as extreme cold, that I really can't help you with.

Well theres different temperatures. The highest is 450. And thats really hot. So if you don't want that high keep it low

The temperature of boiling water appears to be no problem but the moisture might be ... I'd be careful not to submerge the probe connection to the cable or the cable itself in water.

i would suggest avoiding adhesive tapes or putting plastic directly against heated cable, maybe twist some metal wires on to help hold, you probably don't want to risk a fire. proper insulation wrap to cover it over is a good idea

Just got one, and works like a charm!! Says in the manual, not to be used below 65F or above 110F.

It is a very well made and substantial power cord so it should be OK at any temperature several degrees below the melting point of rubber.

The metal junction range is about -200C to +1350C. But the plastic insulation on the wires of this particular model limit the range to about 0C to 250C (cracking or melting of the insulation will likely occur below and above that range).E

Yes. I haven't tested them in an oven hotter than 350 but I think they can withstand up 400 degrees. I don't recall seeing that info in the box.

With proper care I don't see why not. Just don't extent the cable over the heat.

200' with good cable (solid copper) is safe... If you use cca cable, try not to go over 100'. You need to start increasing voltage when you go farther.

They are pretty sturdy,but I don't know how they wil hold up in the high heat. I have mine mounted in my garage to hold my extension cords.
