Splitting a wire
Wednesday, February 22, 2006 6:09 AM
Hey guys, I have a quick question. I'm not too smart when it comes to wiring and stuff and frankly, it scares me. But, i'm trying something out but in order to do it, i need to take one wire and basically split it into three to make it go to three different spots (one wire going to three spots on 2 different relays if that makes sense) - whats the easiest way to accomplish this? Thanks

what gauge wire? does it need to be fused? If not, solder and tape.

please, for the love of all that is good, use heat shrink!

heat shrink will keep the water and crap out, help it stop from corroding.

its cheap, and better than tapping. and for added insurance, wape the heat shrink up after.






Injection is nice but id rather be BLOWN!
