However, you want Automotive cable from a reputable supplier. Household and industrial uses different insulation specs because there is less need to account for vibration.

I'd buy from Vehicle Wiring Products if you want to be sure, but any reputable motor factor is going to sell the right stuff.

While we are on the subject, a few more items:

Never shorten a supplied pre-wired cable. Proper ones have anti-siphon grommets in the first few inches.

Flake excess cable over the longest length possible, don't coil it. Coils make better antennae and better siphons.

CAN messages need correct spec twisted pair. We still laugh about the Chinese busses they had in Ireland that would go crazy under power lines. Bell wire isn't twisted pair.

Use a suppliers table for sizing and fit a fuse one size under the cable rating as an absolute minimum.

If you want to save weight, use thinwall at It's rate, not standard above it.

Use Automotive connectors. Sureseal keeps water out, open blade let's It's though. Neither vibrates like chocolate block and other industrial rubbish. Solder is fine if you have the skill.

If you use scotchlocks, tru-tap, posi-tap or any other **** that crushes or tears, I will laugh at you while you walk home and haunt you forever if your taped up bodging causes me any extra work.
