I can see that as long as your limit switch wiring is well shielded then it shouldn't be a problem as far as the machine is concerned. However I'm conscious that I have some short lengths of the original unscreened cable of the limit switches in use (WHY don't they cable them with twin screened rather than the pissy miniature 3 core stuff???), and besides which I would like to be able to listen to the radio interference free whilst I'm working!
