[VAC] Re: tongue set-up



Dick. Running your equipment on one wire is not a good idea. You should have 
separate circuits for you furnace, a different circuit for your refrigerator, 
and two different circuits for the lights. In that way, should something 
cause a fuse to blow, it won't have any seect on the other circuits. Never 
have all the lights on one circuit for the same reason.
The ohms law formula is E=IR, or I + E over R. or R = E over I
A voltage drop for your furnace and refrigerator is bad news. Use a 10 gauge 
wire for them. You can use a 12 gauge wire for your lights.
