    Tilt trim wiring

    Yes, thinner wires can be used Example: Motor may draw 20 amps at start up to full load. The 20 amps would require 12 gauge wire to from the pump to the switch. If a relay is used, it only needs 12 gauge from motor to relay, and relay to battery connections. Can use 16 or 18 gauge to/from...
