[TenTec] OT: THHN Wire in Germany

[Clayton Brantley]

Rick:  The 1.5mm wire will work just fine.   It will stretch a bit more than
the 2.5mm.  Both will handle all the power available.  The THHN is just
the outer covering and contributes nothing to the mix.

I'm sure that the single strand wire in Germany will be equal to what is
available in the states.

Is anyone here coming over to Germany for the Friedrichshafen Hamfest in
June?

If anyone is coming over, perhaps you could bring me a couple of samples of
THHN wire so that I can see what we have been discussing here.  Most likely
the stuff used in our house wiring is similar stuff.  Reward:  Free Beer!  

I checked.  We have two sizes:  1.5mm (~AWG-15) and 2.5mm (~AWG-10).
I suppose the 1.5mm stuff is sufficient for our needs, since we can only run
750w.
