*This chart is a general guideline and may not suit all applications. If cable overheats, use next size larger cable.
**Weld cable size (AWG) is based on either a 4 volts or less drop or a current density of at least 300 circular mils per ampere. |

( ) = mm2 for metric use |
***For distances longer than those shown in this guide, call a factory applications representative at
