[QUOTE="MakeshiftAudio, post: 6174117, member: 608963"] Sweet. Let's see, are we talking about resonant RF amplifiers? [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] If so, shoot me a PM. Not directed at g35x, supporting his statement, if you look at the (REAL) ampacity charts, you'll notice that they're based on the max rated insulation temperature. I believe that the standard grades are 75*C, 85*C, and 95*C, which is 167*F, 185*F, and 203*F respectively. I would consider that pretty hot, considering the last temperature is almost water's boiling point. :P Yeah, it all boils down to length. When I bench my amps, I have 4/0 cables (I forget, something like 4-5', one run per rail) from my SMPS and battery bank, all the way to the point of a couple inches away from the amp which then goes into a reducer if needed or distro that I machined to allow it to hook to dual 12V power connectors if it is an amp that has dual inputs. (See AB VFL 400.1, Orion 2500D) Thanks for the praise, I hope you don't mind if I sig that, it's kinda cool being praised by you.
