Default Re: Location for relays for fan fuel pump etc...

I had an ARC relay set before I rebuilt my panel. One of the relays went bad right away and all of the wires seemed too small a gauge for the amps required by race electronics. A relay is just a low voltage switch in a high current draw line. The wire in from power and out to the device still needs to match the needs of the load. I can see a bad fuel pump burning out 18-22 gauge wire on an ARC relay. My Pico relays came with 14G pigtails.
