Hello Tom
Ok thanks for the info
I think will be using cooper wire, so I can use 2% or will ask for another
option that has high tensile strength
A friend told me about an used 3.5 mm aluminum cable, that a company is
replacing and we c
An buy a low cost, but don't know if this will last too many years as the
copper wire
HNY!!
