    Subject: Wire Sizes in the wing
    SUSPICIOUS_RECIPS --> RV9-List message posted by: "Stein Bruch" <stein@steinair.com> Hi Guys, Just a quick note about something that I've seen in the past month or two that is a little confusing. I've had no less than at least 6 people ask me for some AWG10 wire to use in their wings. Seems someone "out there" has recommened AWG10 or AWG12 for running to the landing lights. To anyone who is currently wiring your plane, don't fall into the trap that some people do.....that being "if some is perfect, more must be better" - with wire sizes, this is just a huge waste of money, weight, resources, etc.. If the recommened wire is AWG16 or AWG18, there is NO reason to use an AWG10. Just a quick FYI, an AWG10 wire running the approximate length of a RVxx wing, will carry something in the area of 800+ Watts. Who has a landing light requiring that much power?!?! Heck, an AWG16 wire should carry well over 180 Watts in that length. Here's the simple breakdown before adding in resistance per 1K. AWG10 - 70amps current carrying capacity AWG12 - 50amps AWG14 - 40amps So, if you are one of those people running those huge AWG10 wires to your wingtips, ask yourselves why?!? Two big reasons NOT to are: 1). Cost--AWG16-18 averages around $.17/ft & AWG10 is around $.50/ft (300% higher). 2). Weight--AWG16-18 averages .005 lbs/ft, where AWG10 = .03lbs/ft. Meaning, for an average set of wings at 2 wires x 18' = 36' x 2 wings = 72' of wire. At AWG16 or 18 the weight would only be about 8oz's total. AWG10 would be over 2 POUNDS!! Anyway, sorry about the rant...I just thought it might be a good idea to bring this to the surface. Somehow, somewhere, there is a movement to put fat wires into the wings, and I don't know why. If you are one of those people, please enlighten me and the rest of us! FYI, I do have AWG12 on up, and will stock some AWG10 in the future, but in all reality, there isn't much need for it. Cheers, Stein Bruch RV6's, Minneapolis http://www.steinair.com
