Emmet Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 As far as pure copper wires ability to carry current the 10 runs of 1/0 is best. But thats copper wire, not cca, depends on what your using. Quote i shook this one kids hand and it just folded in mine. long story short i fucked his girlfriendso.. yeah.. You want this to happen to you? Give decent handshakes people. I was gifted with an innate ability to distribute wholesale ass beatings in a timely and orderly fashion.
