I have relay sockets wired with 16 gauge and relays rated for 40 amps. Socket leads are 6 inches so that's 1ft of 16 gauge at the start of my circuit causing a 1% voltage drop.
If the rest of the circuit is 14 gauge will it be 14awg drop + the 1% from the 16awg, or will it act as a choke point for the circuit causing additional drop?
I thought about replacing the 87/30 leads but that's half the socket and kinda eliminates the point of having a socket.
