Wiring - sheppy1 - 11:th-Apr-2015
Hi Guys
Wondering which type of wiring you all use for the little bits of work you do...just run out of the last lot of wiring I had which I got from Halfords. Not sure if you all got a specific type. Sure it won't actually matter but thought I'd ask anyway
Thanks

It all depends on what your doing as to what wire you would use.
I will get that info for you tomorrow (in been in bed most of day with a migraine).

Awwww not again dude :( that's okay, take your time, I'm not in a hurry
.Well I used the same one that I got from Halfords for all the lighting mods I did bit tbh I'm not sure which one it was...

5 amp red and black does most jobs lol

Yeah I think that was the one I had lol. Just checking to see if there was another one I should have been using. Will pick some more of that up
thanks
RE: Wiring - tucpal - 12:th-Apr-2015
just let us know what you are doing but 5 amp is fine for lighting mods
RE: Wiring - cornishtaz - 12:th-Apr-2015
5 amp will handle upto 60w
watts =volts x amps

Thanks mate
never been very good with electrical stuff! Ha. So what circumstances would I need a higher amp wire?

Won't be buying it this month but is this wiring going to be suitable for odd jobs on the car:
