The eyelet is an M8 eyelet

The wire gauge of a 12/7 Blue Power is 14 AWG = 2.08 mm2

I also asked this question through the main Victron website and got 12 AWG for the answer...


Hello,

This is 4mm2

I guess I'll find out for sure when I cut it to add an inline fuse.

It’s possible that they are both right and it may vary on manufacturing run and temperature rating of the wire.

If you use a 20A fuse you should be fine either way. That would be suitable and covers both cases.
