Item description

KCA Kable Power / Ground Wire consists of over sized, 34 gauge stranded, copper clad aluminum (CCA) conductors. The KCA Kable has been over sized by design to offset the higher resistance of CCA compared to an OFC cable. So you get equal performance and at sizable savings

Exceeding American Wire Gauge standards, our cables have been tested against their OFC counterparts. Under similar loads, our KCA cable performed nearly identical to higher priced copper products. By using a larger amount of our CCA conductor, we can achieve similar performance at nearly 50% savings versus an OFC cable. CCA overall provides a cost effective solution to most audio systems.

The KCA Cable features an ultra flex matte PVC jacket that makes it bend to any radius and stable in temperatures from -40C to 105C. Colors available in several standard and neon “kandy” colors

Beware of imitation cables that are more jacket then conductor, be sure to see or obtain cross section measurements or pictures.

Rated in Amps, Not Watts: Here at KnuKonceptz, you will not find a random watt rating on our packaging or plastered across the main product image. No, we rate our kits the same way electricians rate the wiring in your home, in amps, by following industry standards.

 

True American Wire Gauge: KnuKonceptz was founded on the concept – Give people more for their money. Bang for the Buck, that’s what we are about! Which is why our wire always meets or exceeds the rated gauge. Cheaper wire is usually just that, undersized wire with oversized insulation.

 

Engineering, not “Market-teering”: Let’s be honest, we’re not a speaker company marketing wire. No, we are cable and distribution experts. Your electrical system is our focus and our products are rated based on real world physics, like Ohm’s Law(see watt rating).

Plain and Simple Specifications


All KnuKonceptz Cable Products clearly state these specifications

  • Wire type – CCA or OFC
    These materials are commonly used, but not commonly stated when shopping online. Know what you are purchasing. Both metals are capable of performing up to their rated loads.
  • American Wire Gauge
    Wire gauge is crucial to powering your system correctly. Undersized cable will create unsafe conditions and may shorten your amplifier’s life.
  • Max Load (amps)
    Wire’s ampacity changes with gauge and materials. KnuKonceptz does not rate cable based on watts. Amplifier manufactures do not always truthfully state the output of their product, check your on board fuses!

True American Wire Gauge (AWG) Products


  • Using American Wire Gauge standards, the gauge of stranded wire is determined by the total area of the conductor.
  • To calculate this you would take the area of each strand and add it together. This area, in square mm, then determines gauge.
  • Diameter is not as critical with stranded wire, this is due to the tiny air gaps between each strand. Diameter may fluctuate with strand size and how tightly wound the rope of the cable is.
  • The smaller the number, the larger the wire, until you reach zero or aught (0). From zero, you then have double aught (00 or 2/0), three aught (000 or 3/0)
  • All KCA Battery Cable exceeds AWG standards for their published gauge.

Copper Clad Aluminum – Best Value


  • For nearly 50% less cost, you can achieve similar current capacity of OFC
  • Always follow the manufacture’s max rating on battery cable.
  • Excessive loads will cause more distortion in amplifiers, create more heat, and will shorten the life of your electronics.
  • Proper termination is crucial for an increased life span. CCA is not recommended for Marine or UTV applications.

Frequent questions

  • Can this power wire be used as ground wire too?

    Yes, there is no physical difference between power or ground cable. We do recommend using two different color wires to differentiate between positive and negative connections though.

  • Why is this aluminum wire copper in color?

    Copper Clad Aluminum is 90% Aluminum, 10% Copper. The copper is plated over top the aluminum to prevent oxidation and offer a slight increase in conductivity. CCA will appear copper from the side view of the wire. If you view the cross section (look straight at the end) you will see the center of the strands is silver in color, confirming the cable is aluminum

  • Is there a difference between 0 gauge and 1/0 gauge?

    0 gauge and 1/0 gauge are the same thing. 1/0 (one aught) literally means one 0 gauge and written as 1/0. The next step larger would be double aught (2/0). The next smaller in the American Wire Gauge chart would then be 1 gauge.
