Earth Wiring in our Car!!

[jonhzc83]

actually what's the difference between with or without earth wiring in our cars???

why is it harder to start the car without earthing???

 

[morningstalker]

because bad earthing means higher resistance for the current to flow.

 

[jonhzc83]

how come some brands very expensive some very cheap... but the cable's thickness looked almost the same!!!

mine - RM100
HKS - RM750

so big difference??

 

[morningstalker]

the conductor used is different .

 

[DRFT_240sx]

its not the conductor , its their design and system . their ingenious way of grounding system is patented and u have to pay for their design.

copper is the best conductor u can get.

My friend is driving new honda city... he also installed earth wiring... very thick earth wiring indeed... later on his battery all drain dry... does this make sense??

 

[c-ground]

it has nothing to do with the grounding.

like what c-ground said, this has nothing to do with grounding. Unless you somehow managed to create a loop, meaning + to - all connected.. then die la. Battery kong, electrical short, and probably engine blow! WOooohooooo

Anyway, grounding sets are based on the wire thickness.. 4 gauge, 8 gauge, etc. C-Ground sells customized grounding sets and are very good priced. So go find their thread in the ZTH and read up about it. :) I got my set at a bloody good price, two 4 gauge wires and the rest 8 gauge.

hks using 24k gold....

Just discovered that, some cables that were claimed to be silver-coated, are actually tinned-copper.. meaning - tin coated copper.

Looks the same, serve the same purpose, huge price difference. Those RM9/feet are actually tin-copper, not silver coated.

MOst of the so-called gold-coated plates, are actually nickel-copper coating.
