I have a remote 7.5kW motor (400V 3 Phase) with local power that I need to control (off and on) from about 1,000 m away.
There is an available telephone copper pair (22 gauge) between the control location and the motor.
What would be my best option?
I'm thinking a 50v supply at the control end driving a small relay at the motor that operates a 220v heavier contactor - but I have no idea of the relay specifications.
An electronic or radio solution would also be considered, but there is a lot of radio noise and power spikes in the area.
