BNTECHGO 16 Gauge Silicone Wire Kit 10 Color Each 25 ft Flexible 16 AWG Stranded Tinned Copper Wire

Q: How many volts can a 20 gauge wire handle?

The details in the description say the insulation is rated for 600V, that’s usually in AC volts. Gauge is determined by the amount of current. For example, 14AWG wire is rated 15A @ 75°C, 12 AWG is rated for 20A @ 75°C. The NEC doesn’t rate wire any smaller than 18AWG that I can see and it says 18AWG is rated at 14A IF the wire has 90°C insulation. I would limit the wire you are asking about to 10A or less and 600VAC or less.

Q: Why pink when there should be grey? Pink isn't chromatic.

mfg. use their own colors at times

Q: Is this wire attracted to a magnet?

No. Steel or iron-containing metals are not used for the transmission of electricity. This wiring is probably made of copper and is not magnetic.

Q: Are the strands pure copper or copper-clad aluminum (CCA)?

Hi, I have the 26ga wire. I opened the box to see the label on the spools, and the label does not contain any information about the type of wire. All I can offer is (a) it is extremely flexible, and (b) solders and crimps very well. I hope this helps
