Dick;

If I had a very heavy load I'd think about splitting the system into
branches; this way each branch can deal with lower current.

Does anybody know of a website that has a reference chart on wire sizes
needed to wire a car.  Maybe a street rod site or something.  I'm re-wiring
my race car and need some help.  I'm not too concerned with wire sizes to
each device, as most of them had pigtails and I figure I can just use the
same size or next size larger. I even have instructions left for some items.
I'm concerned with what size lead I need going to the master fuse panel. I
need to supply a monster fuel pump, three cooling fans, the ignition,
electric water pump, etc.  Originally, I took all of the individual leads
directly off of a master disconnect switch, so they were supplied directly
from a battery cable.  Now, I'm going to go from the master switch to a fuse
panel, and then to individual toggles. What size wire needs to supply that
fuse panel?
  thanks
