Hi David, 
Thanks for that advice. I didn't know about after market shielding, nor the 
single
shielding. I suppose it makes sense, otherwise why have multi core with single
shielding. Amazing how a little cross pollenisation of ideas can create positive
synergy. Appreciated.
Regards
Tony Renshaw
P.S. Quad Core shielded is bloody expensive. Oh well, only have to buy it once.
(That's my wife excuse).

you should have all wires in a single sheath. You can incidentally buy nice 
cable
sheath in various diameters which you can apply easily retrospectively over
a bundle of wires. Can't remember where I got mine from now, but I found them
by googling wire sheathing or something similar.

then you could use radio mic cable which you will have to get anyway to wire

units within the lights. There is 4 cables coming from each strobe, and to
get quad core shielded is very hard, and expensive. The suppliers dont mention
in their installation documentation that you need shielded wiring, and yet when
pushed, they do. I am wondering if I just shield the positive cable, or whether
I need to also shield the negative/earth, and the phase wire which goes to
each strobe to keep them synchronised. Id be interested on what anyone thinks,
and in fact whether shielding them all together could introduce a specific
problem rather than just having one or two of the wires shielded.
