What affect would braiding the branch circuit wiring installed in metal conduit have on the sound of a power amp?The conduit is about 8ft long.
The duplex receptacle used is a Hubbell hospital grade, IG (Isolated Ground) type.
The wire gauge is #12. Just a guess the wire is stranded.
The hot, neutral, and green insulated IG equipment ground are braided together. (The IG ground wire is connected to the ground bar in the electrical panel)
The power amp is a Boulder 3060.
Any thoughts?

- Agree. But how about aluminum? Maybe MC aluminum armor cable? - jea48 10:52:21 12/08/16 (3)

- Braiding BY HAND would be crap. With all the variables in the spacing... - Smelly_Socks 15:15:00 12/06/16 (0)
