I'm looking for some multi core cable to rewire my switch gear...(11 wires).
I've found 12 core listed as 0.75 sq mm....
Q, What is the size/grade /whatever of jap wiring ???
Is the above 0.75 suitable ????

Mate 0.75 Auto will handel an average of 15 amp with acceptable voltage loss on a bike (prob closer to 20 amp with the short runs you will be using) So yep will be fine. Ie A 100 watt headlight will draw about 7.5 amp.

Cheers Red thats the info I needed After some thought I think I will just extend the existing wires. Local electrical shop has some heavy duty heat shrink that stays gloss black when shrunk.
