[A/S] Re: Charge Wire from vehicle #10 or #12



Bud:
I have used a #12 Ga as my hot wire and it maintains tha battery, may 
not bring to a full charge but has kept me out of trouble except two 
times, once the fuse blew in the engine comparment, and once a bad 
plug in between the trailer body and the junction box  on the "A" 
frame.  Both times I was on my way to a WBCCI rally, I guess Murphy 
was riding in the back seat but I didn't see him there.

The RV industry and the automotive industry have different wire color 
codes.   Here is a web site with both color codes:

You didn't ask about color codes so I suppose you knew what the 
colors are, always a good idea to check with a test light, I always 
do.
