About shielded wires, Ground only one end!!!!
Large passenger and car carrying vessel that I work on had a problem with installation of a "monitoring system", and the contracted installer grounded both ends of the shielded cables which made them capacitors, and we were seeing 40v on a 24v system. Much head scratching ensued, system was disconnected, and plans were made by experts to make it work, some day.
