From: "DaveG601XL" <david.m.gallagher@ge.com>
Ron,
Per the the AC43.13-1B conductor sizing chart, 12 ga wire is good for the following
current ratings on a 14V system: Up to 5 feet = 50 amps, up to 8 feet =
30 amps and up to 11.5 feet = 20 amps. If in a big bundle, de-rate to the chart
a few pages further back in the book.
I cannot comment on your fast-on tab question, but 12 ga wire size should be just
fine. It is what I am using, but I have not gone past a few low speed grounds
runs yet myself.
Good luck,
--------
