Ground and PWR wire.

[ndials925]

Hello and good morning from my side of the united states,
How's every one doing? I hope all is well!!!

Just had a quick question for my favorite group of people, whats a good safe footage fo-
r power/ ground wire being ran from front of vehicle to rear trunk? In other words how much
wire should I get? Vehicle length probably about 17 FT just not sure what is a good amount
to route around all the misc. b.s that manufacturers place in vehicles.

~ Have a good day friends!!!

Thanks, all.

I’ll usually do a rough estimate of how much I’ll need using a tape measure and always buy a couple feet more just in case. I’ll use the leftovers for grounds

Bro. You have the car and a tape measure. We don't know how you're going to route it, mount it, or anything. You tell us how much you need, lol.

100' should be plenty...

I usually double the need. I generally find a roll for a good deal/100 ft up to 500 ft

17 foot vehicle, let's see, firewall, engine bay +% = and then door sill +$%=, rear seat, trunk liner +#$=.........

61.35ft @ 4awg - 91.22ft @ 0awg. If the tuning is 30hz then double all lengths.





28ft should be perfect with extra for mess ups or inserting fuse holders or distribution blocks.
