Re: [VAL] 12 volt outlets



It depends on your load.....
14 ga for 15 amps
12 ga for 20 amps
  10 ga for 30 amps
  8 ga for 40 amps
  6 for 60 amps..
Your not going to be running everything at the same time...
Keep your fuse strip close to the batteries ,  If you can't use a heavy 
#6 between the batteries and the fuse strip and a 50-60 amp breaker 
right on the batteries.
Most loads you will run like a radio or tv do not take all that many 
amps..
Have some fun and  see you on the road.
