It’s worth noting that automotive (SAE) wire gauges are different and smaller in cross-sectional area than building wire (American Wire Gauge)) gauges. The difference may be on the order of 5-10 percent. I think, but am not sure, that marine wire is sized according to the AWG. Lot of room for confusion here.
