#11845, "RE: Regarding wire Guage for amp power" In response to In response to 4
go to 4 AWG. The voltage drop/resistance for an 8 awg wire is TRIPLE that of the 4 AWG wire. Sure the 8 AWG can handle the current but the voltage drop for the 15-20 ft of wire you need is a HUGE difference. and your whole electrical system will be happier you switched to 4.
