I-Drive Ratings

Major Ratings and Characteristics of "I-Drive"

Spec of Automotive Wire Harness (AWG12)

Size AWG	Copper Stranding	Conductor OD Inches	Insulation Thickness	Finished OD Inches	Finished Weight lbs/Mft	OHMS Resistance/ Mft	Ampacity 30°C (86°F) Ambient	Ampacity 40°C (104°F) Ambient
12 AWG	(65/30) tinned	0.089	0.030	0.149	31	1.680	44	41

Note: Ampacities based on single conductor in free air, 30°C (86°F) or 40°C (104°F)

ambient temperature as specified, 105°C (221°F) conductor temperature, per table

310-17 of the NEC (adjusted for 105°C). Free air ratings assume a one cable diameter

spacing between adjacent conductors.
