What good is 22 gauge wire?

Here at SparkFun, we typically use 22 AWG wire for prototyping and breadboarding. When using a breadboard or PCB, solid core is perfect because it fits nicely into the holes. For other prototyping/building involving soldering, the stranded core is #1, just be sure not to let too much current run through a single wire.

How much power can a 22 gauge wire handle?

The maximum amperage for a 22-gauge wire is . 92 amps for power transmission, according to the Handbook of Electronic Tables and Formulas for American Wire Gauge. For amperage higher than . 92 you will require a lower-gauge, or thicker, wire.

Is 22 gauge wire thick?

20 gauge: Medium thick wire. Use with regular jewelry tools. 22 gauge: Medium wire. ... 26 gauge: Thin wire.
