Wire Gauge
considerations

Before connecting the PEL-2000, wire gauge must
be taken into account. Load wires must be large
enough to resist overheating when a short-circuit
condition occurs as well as maintain a good
regulation. The size, polarity and length of a wire
are all factors in determining if a wire will
withstand short circuiting.
