Questions & Answers
The grounding you do depends on what you are doing. Home wiring usually needs to be solid wire, and ground is usually green or bare. This is not a solid wire. I may be wrong but I believe solid wiring is needed for home wiring. On my motorcycle, I used this to wire in some accessories.
Copper strands are used to make it. I wasn't expecting it to be as thick as it is. There is a size difference in the wire gauge (smaller) as others have noted. If you order one size larger than you want, you will end up with wire of the right size.
There must be an error in the description. There is a 12 gauge on it.
It is true that the smaller the number of wires, the thicker they are

As a - Oil and gas resistant, thicker than normal jacket, gauge is right with thin stands, but it has a lot more of these than the average manufacturer. Below are some side-by-side pictures of the wires. The white wire comes from Home Depot and the black one comes from Amazon.
I am only required to adhere to an 093" minimum. At most, it could be 80" in diameter.
I hoped for the best, but was not successful. Wire is not 12 ga. I paid for 12 ga but I got 14 ga With a double layer of plastic coating, it is most likely to be around 16ga. Despite my desire to save money, I do not cut corners when it comes to It's no fun to be in the line of fire. There are better ways to measure wire gauge than for this producer to lie about it. Upon return, I'll pay exactly 4 dollars more per role on the NAPA brand that I can trust. In my opinion, I am a lawyer, so blah blah it is.
Considering all the extra insulation they put on it, it appears to be a 12 gauge wire, but it probably isn't. This is NOT how wire is measured. This is standard Chinese junk skirting specification. If it is so cheap, then it would be better to go with real wire instead, otherwise this stuff is a fire hazard.
There is one thing, however, about these wires that people have mentioned -- they are a tiny bit smaller than they appear. In light of these comments, I decided to buy one size larger so that I can have the gauge that I want. There is only one problem - the insulation is thick, which I guess is a good thing but it results in a bulky wire as a whole.
Since they have a wire surround, these have been a hassle to run, but I have not experienced any problems with them.
I am happy with this small roll of wire. It meets my requirements and is less expensive than alternatives I found locally.
There is nothing special about it, just wire. My wire stripper struggled with it but eventually found a way to work with its very rubbery insulation. The wire on my desk looks to be 12AWG, but it's not really a large wire. However, it holds enough current for my application and matches the black 12AWG wire I have.
