Proper Gauge For Wiring

[hatepotholez]

Hello everyone,

 

I was doing some research on swapping out some wires in the harnesses. I couldn't match the Z's wiring gauge to the AWG standard, I later found out the wiring in the Z is under the  AVS standards. For example the main ground and green wire going to the fuel sending unit are  AVG2 which is 26 strands and each strand measured at .32mm. The AVG2 converts to a 14 AWG wire.They go by increments of 2 for the AWG.

 

Here is the AVS standards website:

and most conversions is on page 15:

If I am incorrect, please correct me!!

 

Thanks!

If you are asking whether the fuel pump wires are 14 gauge , then yes I think you are correct.

As long as you use a quality stranded wire and don't undersize you should be good.

Thanks. I just wanted to make sure I am properly converting the AVS to AWG.
