No. You are gonna burn wires.
- loeg 7y agoWell, no; that'd be a broken design that wouldn't pass UL/CE testing. You'd instead have to use much thicker wires.
- hinkley 7y agoAnd what happens when you connect thick wires to tiny connectors?
- loeg 7y agoGo back to step 1: don't design it utterly broken? I suspect the real reason to use many smaller wires instead of two big ones is cable flexibility. There is no electronic problem with two big ones, unless you repeatedly shoot yourself in the foot. Don't do that.
- kbumsik 7y agoYou need to consider both the wire thinness and the terminal.
