How many watts can this amp kit handle? At KnuKonceptz, we do not use "watts" to rate our amp kits. This is a very inaccurate method to determine what the proper gauge wire required for your amp installation. Many amp manufactures do not represent the output of their product accurately in watts. Please refer to your amplifiers fuse rating, this is a number a manufacture can not fake, well they could but it would put their product in harms way! Add up the fuses on the end of your amp (two 30A fuses = 60A total draw) If this number is 60A or less, this kit will fit your application. If over 60A, our KCA series or Kolossus Series amp kits would be required
Beware of "3000 Watt" amp kits that include a 150 fuse. Its physically impossible for these kits to support this load (refer to our comparison photo)
True Gauge CCA Cable
Standards exist for the safety and benefit of the customer. All KnuKonceptz cable products meet or exceed American Wire Gauge standards. When these standards are not met, your safety and our integrity are lost.
Our Bassik series of cable meet exact AWG specification for the appropriate gauge indicated. KnuKonceptz KCA and Kolossus Kables exceed AWG specifications
Plain and Simple Specifications
- Wire type - CCA or OFC
These materials are commonly used, but not commonly stated when shopping online. Know what you are purchasing. Both metals are capable of performing up to their rated loads.
- American Wire Gauge
Wire gauge is crucial to powering your system correctly. Undersized cable will create unsafe conditions and may shorten your amplifiers life.
- Max Load (amps)
Wires ampacity changes with gauge and materials. KnuKonceptz does not rate cable based on watts. Amplifier manufactures do not always truthfully state the output of their product, check your on board fuses!
True American Wire Gauge (AWG) Products
- Using American Wire Gauge standards, the gauge of stranded wire is determined by the total area of the conductor.
- To calculate this you would take the area of each strand and add it together. This area, in square mm, then determines gauge.
- Diameter is not as critical with stranded wire, this is due to the tiny air gaps between each strand. Diameter may fluctuate with strand size and how tightly wound the rope of the cable is.
- The smaller the number, the larger the wire, until you reach zero or aught (0). From zero, you then have double aught (00 or 2/0), three aught (000 or 3/0) ...
- Based on AWG, this cable meets 4 gauge specification
Copper Clad Aluminum - Best Value
- Copper is the best conductor, however for value, CCA makes a great bang for the buck option.
- Always follow the manufactures max rating on battery cable. Excessive loads will cause more distortion in amplifiers, create more heat and will shorten the life of your electronics
- Proper termination is crucial for an increased life span. Always check that connections are clean and secure.
