Just curious to get everyone's opinion on the minimum temperature alarm wire can safely be run at for prewires.

I've always heard it's -15c but have never heard a reason for it.


I don't know what the limit may be but I do know if the insulation is too cold it shatters when you staple it.

I try use several boxes and keep rotating them into a warm area (last choice - cab of the truck).

Best choice is to avoid stapling when its cold - I generally use a lot more zip ties.
