OneMoreFarang Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 If I would want to know which cable size I have to use, I would try Google or some electric expert site. AN is not the place to search for this kind of information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Actually a "useful electrical sites" thread might be a good idea, possibly include places to get those unusual items (such as "intermediate" switches). I too use Doncaster Cables calculator as it's pretty idiot-proof and gives results in metric rather than AWG which many others do being US-centric. Unfortunately, it doesn't calculate for aluminium cable, although simply going one size larger for Al seems to be a pretty general rule. One problem which we're sure to encounter is regulations do vary around the world. Let me apply my (small and aging) brain. We've tried similar in DIY and it got to be unmanageable.
