Silicone Wire Gauges Amps

[sikeston34m]

I've been searching for an answer to this question also.

It appears that most places that sell the wire, don't want to commit to amp carrying ability.

Indeed it does depend on the length of the run.

Here is some info from a website willing to commit to amps:

14Ga. = 35 amps
13Ga. = 50 amps
11Ga. = 100 amps

hmm I have found something on the internet :

12AWG Wire = good for 100amps +
14AWG Wire = good for 50-75amps+
16AWG Wire = good for 25-74amps.
18AWG Wire = good for 25amps.
20AWG Wire = good for 20amps.

so a 13AWG Wire should be good for 80amps+ I think..
