Anyone here needs diy grounding cable, i got extra, so need to let go. i used power amp 4GA cable, damn thick, so the electric conduction must be better than 2GA. I was having hard time to find the cable lug for 4GA cable, coz it's large, but finall still found it at 1 hardware shop. Bought it at RM9/meter, got it 5 meter and already cut it into 4 cables. I also, have 4 meter 4GA cable, bought it at RM28 for 4 meter, havent cut it yet.

those interested please let me know.

hi ksgoh,
that was a typo, 4GA already cut into 4 cables, bought it at RM9/meter. 2GA havent't cut, RM28 for 4 meter, slightly expensive, will let go at chaper price. Will snap a picture and post it later today.

 

[ksgoh]

2GA better than 4GA?? which one thicker, nicer??

4GA is about 10mm and 2GA is about 5mm. Of course thicker provide better performance, the after market commercial grounding cables uses 4GA thickness.
