    As long as it doesn't exceed the maximum rating of the thermostat, then I think it would be yes, but you would have to consult the suppliers or an electrician.

    You could also get your electrician to use a connector unit, which is used to control many mats from one thermostat, but again, ask an electrician.

    If you can physically fit the wires in then yes. Failing that use a junction box.

    I've done three cables, never four though. And with some heating mat/wires only 2 would fit in. But with all makes 2 did.

    I used to flog the Aube 132AF and that fit three of Elektra cables and Flexel in them.
