I assume with 1\4 inch rods you will have 75 amps or so. In that case I would go with 1\4 inch gap. I would worry that if they are closer the heat from two rods in close proximity may effect the epoxy. 1\8 is probably good also just depends on how many amps your running through.</span></div><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481940081552_4158"><span>Hank</span></div> <div class="qtdSeparateBR"><br><br></div><div class="yahoo_quoted" style="display: block;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div dir="ltr"><font size="2" face="Arial"> On Friday, December 16, 2016 6:56 PM, Rick Patton via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org> wrote:<br></font></div> <br><br> <div class="y_msg_container"><div id="yiv0450939912"><div><div dir="ltr">Brian<div>I am using two each 1/8" copper rods on my Minn-Kotta's which I am guessing will equal the same as the 10 gauge wire they use and not knowing how resistant epoxy is to conducting current, I am going with an 1/8" separation and also wrapping both rods with electrical tape to be safe.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Rick</div></div><div class="yiv0450939912gmail_extra"><br clear="none"><div class="yiv0450939912gmail_quote">On Fri, Dec 16, 2016 at 3:46 PM, hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles <span dir="ltr"><<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:personal_submersibles@psubs.org" target="_blank" href="mailto:personal_submersibles@psubs.org">personal_submersibles@psubs.org</a>></span> wrote:<br clear="none"><blockquote class="yiv0450939912gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div class="yiv0450939912yqt7161930493" id="yiv0450939912yqt29915"><div><div style="color:#000;background-color:#fff;font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:12px;"><div id="yiv0450939912m_4243557031991944358yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481938616356_4299"><span>Brian, </span></div><div dir="ltr" id="yiv0450939912m_4243557031991944358yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481938616356_4276"><span id="yiv0450939912m_4243557031991944358yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481938616356_4300">I try to have as much separation as possible just to ensure they don't make contact, but 1\16 inch has worked fine for me.
