26AWG 3.5 amp max current for pvc wire.
22AWG 8.73 amp max current for pvc wire.
Connections max continous amp recommended:
T-plug/deans : continuous current 45A
EC3: continuous current 35A
XT60: continuous current 60A
EC5: continuous current 90A
Gold plated connector/ Tin terminal: continuous current 1A
Full gold plated connector: continuous current 2A
The Max amp of these connectors can add 50% (not continuous burst only).
