Chad Fabry Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 Mitchell, Are you sure the wire looks like that or did the installer divide it, and wind it to put it in the terminal? I've seen wire like that but it's always been on my welders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobC Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 Not necessarily the wire itself but the installation is questionable. If I had to guess at the kind of wire, I'd say it was braided extension cord wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allspec33351 Posted March 31, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 I don't know. It looked like 2 distinct wires covered by insulation. Both the hot and neutral are the same. Captain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobC Posted April 1, 2004 Report Share Posted April 1, 2004 Brainded is the incorrect term here, what I meant was stranded. Did the wire have any markings on it and do you have a picture of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert E Lee Posted April 1, 2004 Report Share Posted April 1, 2004 In any case the wire is larger than what was designed for the breaker, I would call it out for an electrician to evaluate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
