AWG and Electrical Wire: What It Means, Why It Matters
Apparently, there are some that believe that the “size” or “thickness” of a wire is mostly associated with physical tensile strength, and not as relevant to electrical, current-carrying potential. This could not be further from the truth. Not to mince words, though – the thicker the wire, the stronger it […]
