Re: Where to purchase wire?

If I remember correctly, the 30AMP power poles are rated to fit on 12AWG wire, so the sizing of Powerwerx wire might be a little bit off?
In my experience, it can be a tad difficult to fit 12AWG in the PP30 connectors, but it can work without cutting down the strands in a 12AWG wire. I like to use the PP45 more often, which is the 45amp crimp and Powerwerx even sells it as a crimp for 10AWG wire, but it's just a bit faster and easier to use when you're having difficulty making the PP30 work with you.

You can find 18AWG and 22AWG zip cord at Powerwerx.
