EXPLORIST life Mobile Marine & Off-Grid Electrical | Choosing Wire Sizes for a Mobile, Marine, or Off-Grid Electrical System @EXPLORISTlife | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 minutes ago.
In this final video of our Wire Basics Playlist, I bring together everything we've covered in the past 5 lessons. From wire size and insulation to ampacity and common mistakes, we'll use that foundation to learn how to choose the right wire sizes.
In this video, I'll break down my process into three key categories:
1 - Sizing Wires for Components
2 - Sizing Wires for Small DC Loads (Lights, Fans, etc.)
3 - Sizing Wires for 120v Outlets
Join me as I walk you through each step, ensuring you have the knowledge and confidence to select the correct wire sizes for any project.
