Will DC power cable interfere w/ probes?

[Pvtgloss]

Ever since I installed my DC skimmer my probes have been off. Just wondering if I should recalibrate or try to reroute some wires. Has anybody have negative effects on their probes with DC power cables nearby?

That's interesting. I would have thought that the probes use a coax type wire with shielding???

Have you tried shutting the skimmer off for a while to see what happens with the probe readings?

I'm not sure if it's even interference. But the wires are extremely thin, couldn't have much shielding of they do.

I have. My salinity jumps when the skimmer is off. It's all out of wack now. Even when skimmer is off. It was calibrated spot on before I installed the skimmer. I've tried to shake out any air with no luck. I'll try recalibrating it tomorrow
