I crossed this bridge before and the easy, but expensive, way out is to 
use the Wireman's (or equivalent) #304 where 2-#14, 6-#18 are 
recommended for runs up to 325 feet.  However, others suggested using 
Romex #14 for the motor terminals (1 and 2 on the T2X) and an 
inexpensive 6 -#18 conductor cable for the other terminals.  The latter 
is certainly the inexpensive way out.

73, Joe
