I have enough #6 wire on hand to do this job. Will #6 wire work in lieu of the #8 that is called for?

#6 wire will work fine. You can always go up on wire size, just not go to small. The lugs on that unit will work with #6.

Yes, you can always oversize your wire up to the acceptable limits on the breaker lugs.

I would love to help, but not being familiar with your wiring I can't really say what goes to what. My recommendation would be to study the included wiring diagram and if that doesn't help consult a qualified electrician in your area. Good luck.

I'm not sure if it will or not. We had to send this back because it would not work with our camper. We needed one with six wires and this one only had 5.

The information sheet had a different (than normal telephone) order for the colored wires. But it does not really matter as long as both ends are the same it is just a pass through. I have two cat 6 cables and it worked fine.

4awg wire will work fine, no need to replace with 8awg. I have 4awg wire ran to this same amp accompanied by a JL 10" sub and it supplies nice, clean power

Quite well. I got mine last summer while working on a boat restoration. Most of the wiring is 16 thru 10 gauge and it worked great. Don't think it will work on 4 or 6 gauge. For most wiring, you won't know how you lived without it!

It works with a 4 wire, 6 wire, and 8 wire connector. It is still a RJ45 connector for either one, internally the wire's are configured differently. The tool should terminate both. Check this link out. http://www.accesscomms.com.au/reference/cat5&6plugcomparison.htm

most systems at 12 volt use 10 amps or less of power. Therefore, 16 to 18 guage wire should work just fine.

It should, Cat 6 should have 8 wires like Cat 5 also. It uses an RJ 45 connector I think.

Hi. My home was also, an my electrical knowledge was limited at best... Upon googling, I learned that I just needed to make sure I had room for a 60 amp double pole breaker, (which I did)... Went to the hardware store with one of my old breakers (so they could see which style box I had), and they showed me which breaker style I needed. Other then that, I just had to buy 30' of number 6 wire. I got the kind that has 3 in 1 basically.

I doubt it. I used 12 AWG and it was very tight. You would probably have to trim the 8 AWG wire down to get it to work.

I do not believe this will work for your application. I don't think relays will respond correctly to only 6 volts

Lorie--it sould work (same size) but we have the g6a-8E (electronic switch) so you will have to put in a switch. But it went right in & replaced the old one wire for wire. It was pretty easy for my husband to do with a little help from me holding it up!!

read the extensive review done by www.the wire cutter . Com that should have your answer

Are you talking about your power wires? If so I would definitely use 4 gauge for my ground with any amplifier you can use 6 or 8 gauge for the power cable

I'm not 100% sure, but I think that you would need a 4 pin wiring harness, I think the 8 pin wiring is for big trailers (travel trailers) that use electronic brakes, etc... But you could probably Google it.

I was able to hook up to 6 on a Kubota tractor. anymore and you would be pushing the limits of the wiring. Tom
