In Reply to: is it safe to pass 2.55amperes along a 20AWG teflon hook-up wire? posted by jarthel on April 16, 2007 at 23:48:22:
Jarthel,
20 AWG ratings
Single wire - 5.7 Amps max
Bundled Wires (less than 6 wires in bundle) - 3.99 Amps max
Bundled Wires (more than 6 wires in bundle) - 3.42 Amps max
These figures are from aircraft wiring standards.So yes - go for it.
Cheers,
Ian
