Making Your Own Multicables

[jonhirsh]

Here is a list of what you need to make up one run of a multi cable with stage pin on both ends.

1 Break in w/ male stage pin
1 x' 6 circuit socapex run
1 Break out w/ female stage pin

That will get you what you need. Otherwise you can buy multicable in raw form. Then wire on your own stage pin but it will cost about the same if you factor in labour. And yes your own time is worth money if you belive it or not.

as far as $750 25' cable, I'm guessing the shop just dint not want to bother with it, I was quoted $900 for 250' of 12/12 to replace some drop boxes, that comes to $3.60 a foot, granted you were probley looking at 12/19 or at the very least 12/14 throw in another $300 for the socoapex connectors and the cost comes in well under $750

Sorry I should have clarified... that the $750 was for genuine Lex Socapex cable and break out boxes. It's like $440 just for the Lex breakout box.
