| Rated Capacity (Amps) | Continuous Capacity (Amps) | Cross-sectional Area (mm2) | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 300 | 112 | 16 | Use for 12V systems up to 1.35kW; 24V systems up to 2.7kW |
| 600 | 225 | 25 | Use for 12V systems up 2.7kW; 24V systems up to 5.4kW |
But cable current capacities vary with who you read. Eg:
See the 'Load Carrying Capacities' section at Powerstream wire-sizing page
